When doing Weight Watchers in the past, they shared with us the fabulous, low calorie dessert, called Cake in a Mug. I have tried many different variations and they all have been good. Just recently Hungry Girl shared this variation; Snicker's Cake in a Mug. It looked so scrumptious that I just had to try it!

Microwave for 1 minute and 45 seconds, or until set. (Do not over cook, it will make the cake very dry; my microwave required less time)
Immediately run a knife along the edges to help separate the cake from the mug. Firmly place a plate over the mug, and flip so that the plate is on the bottom. Gently shake mug to release cake onto the plate.
Let cool completely, about 15 minutes.
Drizzle cake with caramel, and sprinkle with peanuts and chocolate chips!
A perfect low calorie treat for the chocolate lovers!! Enjoy!
A big thank you to Hungry Girl for sharing all of her yummy low calorie treats!
