5 Minute Cake/ Instant Cake in a Mug
Ingredients
  • All purpose flour (Maida) - 4 tblsp
  • Sugar - 4 tblsp
  • Cocoa Powder - 2 tblsp
  • Egg - 1
  • Milk - 3 tblsp
  • Oil - 3 tblsp
  • Vanilla extract - 2 drops
  • Microwavable safe mug - 1
  • Optional Ingredients
  • Chocolate chips - 2 tblsp
  • Dry shredded cocunut - 1 tblsp
  • Carrot (grated) - 1 tblsp
Instructions
  1. Apply cooking spray in the coffee mug so that the cake wont stick.
  2. Add flour(maida), sugar and cocoa to the mug and mix well.
  3. Add the egg and mix nicely.
  4. Pour in milk and oil and mix well. Be careful to mix properly till the bottom.
  5. Add vanilla extract and mix again nicely till all lumps are removed and you get a smooth batter.
  6. Put mug into the microwave and cook for 3-5 minutes at high power (1000 watts). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed.
  7. Allow to cool. Tip out onto a plate and enjoy.
Notes
Instead of the 2 tblsp of coco powder, add maida itself and you have plain tea cake. Add strawberry syrup and you will get instant strawberry cake.
