Mug Cake

It has been close to three weeks that I wrote any article but have been posting pics on the site.  Two reasons one is  Bakesngrub venture setting up is taking time and lot of teething issues and to top it all I have two brats who have their summer vacations on . All mothers will relate to this aspect if you have two kids at home 24/7 so what can happen. Delhi Heat also forces you to keep them indoor.  To keep kids occupied we have been experimenting a lot with food, the mother and kids have made Nutella cake in a mug,  oreo biscuit cake, maggi tikki and lots of amazing stuff. These may not be my recipes but adopted from internet and made some variation to suit our palette. But what I am sharing with you all today is special recipe downloaded by my kids and they wanted me to try with them and be their taster. I tried getting the source but there were many version as kids had just noted it down on paper. So here it goes Nutella Cake in microwave in a Mug

Ingredients

• Nutella- 3tbsp
• Sugar- 2tbsp
• All purpose flour/Maida-4 tbsp
• Milk- 4-5 tbsp
• Oil- 2tbsp
• Coco powder – 2 tbsp
• Baking Powder- ½ tsp
• Choco chips- 2 tsp or even grated chocolateMethod:

1. Take a Big Coffee Mug which is microwave safe. Brush, it with oil
2. Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Sieve it or whisk them together (Sugar, Flour, Oil, Coco Powder, Baking Powder)
3. Add the wet ingredients and make it smooth paste. Check the consistency and increase or decrease the milk
4. Pour the batter in the mug
5. Microwave around 2 min or 15-20 seconds more or till it is done
6. Remove from microwave or let it stand for 2 min in microwave.
7. Serve hot in the mug itself with fresh cream, ice-cream or chocolate sauce

It turned out really well. Thanking the person who made this recipe and my Kiddos loved making it . These days they just pop it after dinner as desert and only need someone to pull it out from micro as it is very hot.  Go ahead and make with kids or just surprise yourself with sudden desert after a meal

Since it has been a long time, I thought I will give one more recipe again it is not mine I used to make it with Parle-g biscuits but I saw it with Oreo biscuits.  Take about 15-20 oreo biscuits and grind them in mixie with 1 cup of milk and 1-2 tbsp of sugar. Pour in microwave safe bowl which has been brushed with oil.  Add ¾ tsp of eno once the batter is in the bowl or ¾ tsp baking powder. Microwave for about 3-5 min or till the cake is done. Let it stand for 5 min and then cut it

Hope you all enjoying making these recipes. I promise to be more regular. Pics may not be too good as kids took it
