Gingerbread Mug Cake

Darpan News Desk IANS, 02 Dec, 2024 03:29 PM
  • Gingerbread Mug Cake

Ingredients:

4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons molasses

2 tablespoons milk

2 tablespoons melted butter

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

In a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.

To the dry ingredients, add 2 tablespoons of molasses, 2 tablespoons of milk, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Pour the batter into the mug. Place the mug in your Voltas Beko microwave on high for 1 to 1.5 minutes. Keep an eye on it to prevent overflow, as microwave times may vary.

After the initial cooking time, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter), the cake is done.

If needed, microwave in 10-second intervals until fully cooked.

Enhance your gingerbread mug cake experience by adding toppings like whipped cream, a dusting of powdered sugar, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
