- Combine half and half, melted butter, egg yolk and vanilla in prepared mug until blended.

- Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. Do not stir chips into batter! Chips will sink down into batter as cake "bakes".
- Microwave 2 minutes or until cake is puffed and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs. If necessary, continue microwaving in 10-second intervals being sure not to over cook! Let stand 1 minute. Cake will sink down as it stands.
