  • The consistency of batter will be semi solid & it should fall like a thick ribbon. Make sure the batter is filled till half of the mug because this cake will double while cooking.
  • Now microwave the mug in high power for 1 minute. Cake will raise & its size would be doubled.( mine is 800w. Please adjust the timing as per the power of your microwave) Check with a toothpick or back of a spoon. If it comes out clean,cake is done. Else keep it again for 10 secs.
  • For simple decoration, you can put sprinklers on top as I did OR dust it with powdered sugar. If you apply frosting, it would be even more rich. Make your choice & variations !

Happy Valentine’s day !!

Note
  • Do not mix everything together. First mix the dry ingredients & then go for mixing wet ones.
  • Adjust the time based on the power of your microwave.
  • It tastes mildly sweet. So add more sugar based on your tastebuds. But make sure sugar is dissolved before you microwave.
