It’s been over a month that we are stuck at our home’s and cravings are a real deal, we cannot go out and eat our favourite cakes, cookies, pastry and what not. But staying home is the only appropriate option we have to save ourselves and loved ones from this pandemic situation, we see everyone baking cakes and tasty dishes with whatever they have at their home and trust me baking is not that difficult as it looks, you can bake a cake which can be made by ingredients which are mostly present in our kitchen.

I’m going to share 3 simple but interesting mug cake recipes which are very easy to make and tastes delicious, it’s so simple and quick that it’s going to be your midnight snack or whenever you crave for something sweet.

• Take a Mug and add 3 spoons of all purpose flour (maida),2 spoons of granulated sugar (white sugar) 1 spoon of coco powder and a pinch of baking soda in it and mix all the dry ingredients very well.

These are the basic ingredients which will be used in all the three variations of our mug cake (make sure that the measurements are correct or else your cake will not turn out as perfect as it should be)

1. The first will be the basic chocolate mug cake , follow the above mentioned steps mix all the ingredients carefully, now add 2 table spoons of vegetable oil or butter, add milk according to the ingredients, make sure the batter is smooth and silky, it shouldn’t have any lumps in it. Now add nuts like almond, raisins, walnuts whatever you like.

Now put the mug into your oven and let it cook for 70-80 secs, once the timer is off take a knife and pierce it into the cake , if the knife comes out clean that indicates the cake is well cooked and ready to eat. Serve it with chocolate syrup and vanilla ice cream and enjoy.

2. The second option we have is a snikkers mug cake, add all the dry ingredients in a mug and mix it, now add 2 spoons of vegetable oil and 6-7 spoons of milk ( add milk according to the ingredients) it should turn into a smooth and silky batter now add caramel on the top and garnish some roasted peanuts. Now put it in the microwave for 70-80 secs, once the timer goes off check if the cake is baked properly and enjoy.

3. The third and the most delicious one has to be Oreo mug cake, add all the ingredients in a mug and mix well (ingredients mentioned above) make sure that all the dry and wet ingredients are mixed properly, once the ingredients are mixed properly add crushed Oreo biscuits on the top and put it in the microwave for 70-80 secs, when the timer goes off check if the cake is cooked with the help of a knife, if the knife comes out clean that indicates the cake is well cooked, now add chocolate syrup on the top and enjoy hot.
