  • Whisk egg, sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, butter, vegetable oil, vanilla, and salt together in a bowl until smooth. Stir almonds, chocolate chips, and coconut into the mixture; whisk in milk.
  • Place flour into a small bowl or measuring cup and stir baking powder into flour with a mini whisk or fork. Pour flour mixture over batter and whisk just until you can't see visible flour.
  • Divide batter evenly between 2 coffee cups. Gently tap the cups on a work surface to eliminate air bubbles.
  • Place cups into a microwave oven, one at a time. Microwave each cup on high for 45 seconds. Nothing will happen in the first 30 seconds; in the last 10 to 15 seconds, batter will begin to rise in the cup. Cooked cake will collapse after microwaving. Remove from oven and let cool, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Lightly dust each serving with confectioners' sugar and 1/8 teaspoon cocoa. Place each coffee cup onto a saucer and serve.
