1. **Mix Dry Ingredients**: In a microwave-safe mug, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
2. **Add Wet Ingredients**: Add the almond milk, maple syrup, and vegetable oil to the dry mixture. Stir until smooth and fully combined. If using, fold in chocolate chips or nuts.
3. **Microwave**: Microwave the mug on high for about 1-1.5 minutes, or until the cake has risen and is set in the middle. (Cooking times may vary by microwave, so keep an eye on it!)
4. **Cool & Enjoy**: Let it cool for a minute, then enjoy your warm, gooey mug cake straight from the mug!
Feel free to top it with some fruit, vegan whipped cream, or a scoop of vegan ice cream for an extra treat!
