For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips or add a teaspoon of cocoa powder to the batter. Adjust the microwaving time depending on your microwave's power. Keep a close eye to prevent overcooking. Feel free to experiment with mix-ins like chopped nuts, dried fruit, or a swirl of peanut butter. If you prefer a cakier texture, add an extra tablespoon of flour. For best results, use a standard-sized mug (approximately 12-16 ounces).
