Introduction
Whenever you want to enjoy a cake but not have to do the work, then this recipe is the perfect solution! Mug cakes provide the enjoyment of cake, but not all of the work. Let’s get cooking!
Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 4 tablespoons milk (or dairy-free milk)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons flavorless oil (sunflower, vegetable or coconut oil)
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Funfetti sprinkles
Instructions
-
In a microwavable mug whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder.
-
Add in the milk, oil, and vanilla and mix until just combined. Stir in the sprinkles.
-
Microwave for roughly 45 seconds – 1 minute, or until firm to the touch (timing is based on my microwave which is 1200 Watts so your timing may vary).
-
Serve warm with frosting, ice cream or cream.
Now sit back, relax, and enjoy your (near) effortless mug cake!
Have you ever made raspberry mint brownies? Yum! All the fudge, tang, and minty goodness! Let’s bake!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line with parchment and lightly grease an 8×8” baking pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, salt, and cocoa powder together. In a separate bowl, rub the mint leaves into the sugar with your fingers for about 30 seconds, it should be very fragrant.
-
Put the chocolate and butter in a large glass bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Stir, and repeat until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and smooth. Add the sugars. Whisk until completely combined. The mixture should be room temperature.
-
Add 2 eggs to the chocolate mixture and whisk until combined. Add the vanilla and stir. Do not overbeat the batter at this stage or your brownies will be cakey.
-
Sprinkle the flour mixture over the chocolate mixture. Using a rubber spatula (not a whisk), fold the flour mixture into the chocolate until just a bit of the flour mixture is visible. Fold in the chocolate chips and raspberries.
-
Bake in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs attached.
-
Cool brownies completely before cutting into 16 equal squares with a very sharp knife.
-
Brownies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Enjoy your brownies!
