This day and age is all about convenience, but with a personal touch. If you don’t have all the time in the world to make a big flashy cake for yourself or for guests, you can still procure something homemade and easy in no time! Try making a mug cake, which is exactly as it sounds; a cake made in a coffee mug. Not only will you have individual cakes for as many people as you need, but you do all of the prep work in the mug. Give them a try for your next dinner party or when your sweet tooth kicks.
- Combine self-raising flour, sugar and cocoa powder to a mug. Mix well.
- Add in one egg and combine as best as you can.
- Add milk, oil, and vanilla extract and combine.
- Finish with chocolate chips, nuts, or small candies if you like.
- Pop it in the microwave for 1 1/2-2 minutes on high until the cake has puffed up.
- Serve the while they’re hot!
Pro Tip: Make a mug cake buffet and have different icings, jams, candies, and syrups to put on top of each cake so everyone can decide exactly what they’re like. Keep the cakes warm by placing some tin foil on top of them.
