Optional step: freeze a truffle ahead of time to add into batter. Put the truffle in when the mug is half-filled with batter, then add in the rest of the batter. This creates a molten lava cake.

Spray cooking oil into a mug. Pour in the batter. Microwave for 1 minutes and 30 seconds, then let stand in the microwave for about a minute. (based on a 1100 W)
