Ingredients
  

4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for a subtly chocolatey flavor)

1/8 teaspoon baking powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons milk

1 tablespoon vegetable oil (or melted butter)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened

1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for the cheesecake swirl)

2 tablespoons diced fresh strawberries (plus extra for topping)

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a microwave-safe mug, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

    Add Wet Ingredients: Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth and no lumps remain.

      Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth. Gently fold in the diced strawberries.

        Layer the Mixture: Pour half of the cake batter into the mug. Add the cheesecake mixture on top, spreading it evenly. Pour the remaining cake batter over the cheesecake layer.

          Microwave: Microwave the mug cake on high for 1 minute and 20 seconds. Keep an eye on it as microwaves may vary; it should rise well and look set in the center.

            Cool and Serve: Allow the mug cake to cool for 1-2 minutes before serving. Top with extra fresh strawberries and enjoy your Velvet Strawberry Cheesecake Mug Cake!
