In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt until combined.
Add the milk and vegetable oil; whisk until smooth and free of lumps.
Pour the batter into a microwave-safe mug (14-ounce works best), leaving space for the cake to rise.

Microwave on high for 70 seconds; place a paper towel under the mug to catch any overflow.
