For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate cocoa powder.
If you prefer a less sweet cake, reduce the sugar to 3 tablespoons.
Do not overcook the cake, as it will become dry and rubbery. The center should be slightly soft and gooey.
Experiment with different extracts, such as almond or peppermint, for a unique twist.
The type of mug you use can affect cooking time. A wider mug may cook faster than a taller one.
