As a new mummy I’ve found it a little tricky to spend as much time on cooking, crafting and other homely tasks that I need to keep on top off.
I do really enjoy cooking and hate that since Rabbits been here I haven’t taken the time and effort to whisk up a good meal- in fact we’ve resorted to takeaways far too many times for my liking!
So when the team at Zanussi sent me some easy tips for around the home I was really excited to give them a go!
The first tip was a microwaveable chocolate mug cake recipe which took about a minute to prepare, 2 minutes to heat and used items that I generally have in my cupboards everyday.
Here are the ingredients I used:
And the instructions …
I managed to prepare it with Jasper in one arm (not the easiest as he was wriggly, but shows it can be a one-handed task!)
Voila! It didn’t rise as much as I’d have liked but then it’s quite a large mug so that might have been why.
I added some double cream and enjoyed the no-bake, spongy chocolatiness I’d managed one handedly in 3 minutes!
If you have any mug cake recipes I’d love to hear them, I’m now a tad obsessed and up for anything to make life that much easier!
Thanks for reading 🙂
*I was sent a voucher to purchase the ingredients for this recipe. Opinions are my own.
Oh wow! That looks yummy!!
It really was and quite filling too! Give it a go! xx
Hey,
Funnily enough I was looking at mug cake recipes earlier…@runninggirlslim on Instagram has lots of ‘healthified’ recipes…
The mug cake one being…
•1/2 banana
•1 egg
•1 tbsp cacao/coco powder
•1 tbsp almond meal/flour of your choice
•mix in mug and put in microwave for 90 seconds
(You can add honey to make it sweeter or add in nuts and berries too)
Oh wow this sounds incredible! I’m going to have to give this a go 😀
