Peanut butter & chocolate mug cake.

If you're feeling like having a naughty treat today, but don't want to go too over-the-top with it, this little gem is perfect! I originally found this recipe (which is actually called '"the one" chocolate mug cake') on the blog, BudgetBytes, but I've changed the recipe up a bit to make it less calorific. It's super tasty, super gooey but not super naughty (although it tastes very naughty!) - yay! :D It's approx. 293 kcal for one mug cake! Great to have as a cheeky snack before bed! Yum yum!

Here's how it's made (these are the ingredients for the low-kcal version I've put together, the normal, higher-kcal version can be found on BudgetBytes):

Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp smooth reduced fat peanut butter
- 2 tsp granulated sweetener (e.g. Splenda)
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp reduced fat cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp oil
- 2 tbsp almond milk
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- a pinch of salt

Method:
1. Put all of the dry ingredients into a mug and mix it all together.
2. Add the oil and almond milk into the mug and stir until it's smooth.
3. Place the peanut butter into the centre of the mixture and push it down.
4. Now microwave it for 1 minute. Some may need 5-10 seconds longer than this, as microwave's powers can vary.
5. Enjoy! ;)

Alternatively, you could use chocolate spread or nutella for an even chocolate-ier cake, or you could just take the peanut butter out completely to make to make it even less calories (it saves you about 85 kcal)!
