My Grandfather is talked about for asking what was for dessert as soon as the prayer for the meal was over! I think I am much like him in that way. I am always ready for dessert. As a child, I would tell my mother that I was full of regular food, but that I had a separate space for dessert! Being in and out of town or visiting with family during the summer means that I don't do as much cooking. The only desserts I have made in the past few weeks have been to take places. Tonight after dinner, I wanted some dessert, but I did not want to make a big dessert. I recalled seeing the Mug Cake on Pinterest. So, as usual, I compared a few different recipes that I found, and modified them to make my own version. It was delicious! This project was definitely a success. I may still tweak the recipe some...next time I plan to try using one egg in two mug cakes (I made two tonight,because if you make dessert, you should have enough to share with your loving husband!). I will let you know how it goes in the future. Below is the recipe I compiled and modified to make my own. If you have any recommendations, please comment! I would love to hear your feedback!
Mug Cake
4 T All Purpose Flour
4 T Sugar
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1 Egg
1 T Coco Powder
1 1/2 T Hershey's Syrup
1 T Milk
1/2 tsp Vanilla
3 1/2 T oil
Chocolate Chips
Mix all ingredients in large coffee mug. Cook in microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Let cool - just enough that it won't burn you. ENJOY!!!
Sounds yummy! May have to try that!
ReplyDeleteIf you do, it is even better if you have a scoop of ice cream on top, or a glass of milk!!
