Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350. Spray 2 6-ounce ramekins very well with cooking spray, and set them on a small baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and pinch of salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, milk, oil, vanilla, and coffee (or water).
- Add the dry ingredients in two batches to the wet ingredients, and stir gently to combine. Divide the mixture between the two ramekins. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- While the cakes cool, make the frosting: whisk together all ingredients, adding more coffee or milk to thin it out to a pourable consistency. Sprinkles!
