Directions
- In a small microwave-safe mug, microwave the butter on high for 20 to 35 seconds until melted, then tilt the mug so the butter coats the sides.

- Add the flour and salt and stir until just combined. Fold in any mix-ins and top with flaky salt if you are using it.
- Microwave on high for 60 to 75 seconds, until puffed and springy.
- Let rest for 1 minute, then serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
