- This is a cry for help
hidden in a YouTube video.
(triumphant music)
- Hello!
- Everybody, and welcome to our kitchen,
hope you- you!- are well.
Welcome to the future
of the channel right here as well because
as this year and times progress and we evolve
I will slowly dilute down
and I will allow my young
and some of my friends
and some new characters
to blossom onto this channel.
- (gasp) Get in!
(laughter)
- I'm not going anywhere just yet
but the future is very exciting indeed.
Anyhow, hope you're well.
Today we're doing three surprising,
can you do a surprising face, please, Mrs. B?
(gasps)
(giggles)
We didn't even rehearse that!
Amazing.
Mug cake recipes that I've been sent in.
One of them
(laughter)
looks amazing and so simple!
The other one is supposed to take a little bit of time,
and the third one, potentially,
if we don't put it in the fridge, tastes horrendous!
(nervous laughter)
So we're gonna get that one
out of the way first.
- That's a good start.
- Who wants to do that one? - Me!
- All right.
- Okay.
- Gimme five.
(high five)
- Chloe, you're up!
The first one:
a baked, microwaved cheesecake
in a mug!
- ...okay?
- Surprise face!
(gasps)
- 1 tbsp of butter,
she used a spoon measurer thing,
and can you put that in the microwave
and blast it?
Like literally 10 second blast, all right?
Cause butter goes really, really melty
really quick and then it can splatter, all right?
- I know!
I've done cookies loads of times.
- I recon another 10 seconds, mate, okay?
- Well, I'm going to go for 5.
- Who's in charge here, right?
(spoon clinking on glass)
- I knew it would only take 5!
- So for the crust of a cheesecake,
you want it standard,
normally use digestive biscuits,
or if you're in America,
graham crackers.
Ginger nuts are quite nice, where you can mix it up
with chocolate digestives.
I thought we'd do something even different-
- (gasp) Chocolate digestives?
- Yes!
Coconut biscuits, these are quite retro here in the UK.
Coconut flavoured biscuits!
So whatever one you wanna use,
that will be your crust
and give it extra flavour.
So we need, apparently,
about 4 tbsp of that.
(blender whirs)
- [Barry] And we'll scoop
4 tbsp of that,
grease the inside of the mug,
the bottom and the sides, hopefully.
Because obviously this is a cheesecake.
It's going to be quite tricky
to get it out.
- Just the bottom?
- Bottom and sides, okay?
And that will help it as it cooks
to just release it. Cause we have got to try
and turn it out.
(spoon scraping on bowl)
- [Barry] Let it all get coated,
and it should thicken up, all right?
And then we can temp it down, okay?
So it goes nice and compact,
every little bit.
And that is gonna be
our cheesecake crust.
Whisk your egg together,
(Barry imitating a trumpet flare)
- [Barry] This is 2 tbsp of sugar.
- (sniff) ahh!
- [Barry] This is 2 tbsp of yoghourt,
you might need to use-
- [Chloe] Ah!
- [Barry] Oh my gosh,
she missed the bowl!
That's cool,
we have loads left.
- Yeah, I don't really like yoghourt.
I don't like Philadelphia either,
but I like cheesecake.
- [Barry] Philadelphia?
Other brands are available,
but yes we are using...
That is cream cheese, or soft cheese.
- [Barry] What's the matter?
- Strong.
- [Barry] Okay well, we only need a little bit.
That's vanilla extract.
You can put in any flavouring you want!
Lemon extract, strawberry extract,
almond extract, peppermint extract-
- I'm waiting for you to say stop.
- [Barry] Oh gosh, stop then!
(Chloe giggles)
- [Barry] Yeah, that's fine!
That's about a quarter of a teaspoon, that's ideal, mate.
Well done!
Right, I wanna see you
whisk that together carefully.
(upbeat music)
- Its smooth as a baby's bum!
(laughter)
- [Barry] So that is our batter
that apparently,
we pour straight over this.
- [Chloe] All right.
- [Barry] Yes!
Look at that!
I was a bit worried,
but it is actually holding.
Right, now we microwave it!
- For? - [Barry] A minute, at first.
(microwave beeps)
- [Barry] Oh, perfect!
Ooh don't- I don't want you to touch that,
cause you've got child hands.
Ooh, look!
- [Chloe] Ooh!
- [Barry] You can see that it's started to cook!
That's right, it should be a little bit wobbly.
Apparently, we now do it for another minute,
but on 20 second blasts, all right?
(microwave door opens) - [Barry] There we go, see?
- [Chloe] And then it cools down!
- [Barry] Yes!
All right, time has just gone.
We let it stand for a couple of minutes,
oh its a bit wonky.
It's certainly come away
from the sides a bit, hasn't it?
- Yeah.
You know what it reminds me of?
- [Barry] What?
- Butterbeer!
- [Barry] Butterbeer, really?
- From Harry Potter.
- [Barry] We've made a Harry Potter cheesecake!
We'll let it cool to room temperature for a bit.
Then we got to try and turn it out,
which is going to be fun.
So, it's too warm right now.
Let's see how it goes, all right?
Just a little top tip on the final, folks,
just while this is cooling down.
This mug's still quite hot,
but if I just turn the mug slightly,
gravity is helping,
pulling away that middle filling.
There you go,
hopefully you just can see it's just starting to come away-
I don't wanna do it too much, it could break.
I just hope that the crust stays with it.
I've got a spatula here,
and we're just gonna go for this.
(cheesecake squelches)
(angelic choir sings)
(cup clinks)
(laughter)
- Look!
Its like a creme brulee thing!
We'll go like this,
(grunt)
- That scared me.
- It scared me too! I don't think I did that
as neat as I could've,
but look!
It's a cheesecake!
But apparently if we eat it now,
and this is the official words
that someone that sent me this recipe,
it tastes horrendous.
It does look like an omelette.
But, if we chill it, maybe dust it with some icing sugar,
put some fruit on it?
- Hm! - It should taste all right!
- Let's put it in the fridge, then.
- Yeah!
- All right, Picasso, you ready?
- Yes.
- No, Phoebe-
Ah! Phe-casso!
We're gonna do a cinnamon roll
in a mug, right?
- Yes.
- You gotta make the dough yourself,
and we're gonna stick with,
we've got quite a few of these see through mugs,
I think it's probably the best.
Easy step first,
icing!
- [Barry] Icing sugar, AKA confectioner's sugar.
And you can use milk,
or water, or anything you want.
We got milk.
- Okay.
- [Barry] Only add a little trickle, okay?
(whisk clinking)
- [Barry] Whatever you do,
don't add too much moisture, okay?
Cause you can slowly add it.
Yeah! That looks like it can pour a little bit.
- You can drink the rest of the milk,
cause it puts hair on your chest.
Do you want some?
- No thanks.
- You want some hair on your chest? All right.
Mm!
Next up mate,
a little bit of butter.
- Okay.
- [Barry] Grease your mug.
Remember, do the inside and the bottom-
that sounds wrong.
The dough! We've got plain flour,
we've got some baking powder
that will help it rise,
little bit of salt,
and some water which you can add in.
So basically, start chucking that all
in there, mate, okay?
- [Phoebe] Okay.
- [Barry] You're gonna slowly add the water,
do it a little bit at a time,
and then you can bring this all together
with your hands.
This is a little preview of you
making pizzas for me in the pizzeria, right?
(both laugh)
- [Barry] It's good practise!
Look at that!
- [Phoebe] That was quite fun!
- [Barry] You 'knead' to do that more often.
(Phoebe laughs)
- [Barry] ...that was a sympathy laugh, folks,
don't know if you heard that?
- 'Weird-dough'.
(Barry groans)
- Just shimmy down a little bit more flour,
get nice and covered,
there you go! So you want to make it into
one big, long tongue, really.
As thin as you can.
(timer dings)
- [Barry] Awesome!
All right, Phoebs, what is that?
- [Phoebe] Cinnamon and sugar.
- [Barry] It is.
- [Phoebe] I love the smell of cinnamon.
- [Barry] You know what?
I used to love the smell of cinnamon,
but when I did the cinnamon challenge,
honestly I can't.
I really don't like cinnamon that much now.
- [Phoebe] Is that when you have to eat a tablespoon of it?
- [Barry] A tablespoon?!
- Or a teaspoon?
- [Barry] A teaspoon, mate!
- Oh, my eyes are watering!
My eyes are watering!
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm!
(banging)
(coughing)
- That's the most disgusting thing
I've ever tasted, I must admit.
- [Barry] Sprinkle that
onto your big, doughy tongue.
That's it! Bring it in a fair bit.
And then just roll that up tightly,
so that's holding the dough
and the cinnamon in there together.
Nice! Let's have a look at that.
I like the cylinder sort of look of it.
Wow!
Okay, stick to one side slightly.
It might look a little it warped, but...
One minute in there.
(microwave beeping)
- [Barry] If you have a 1200W microwave,
you might want to do it for
40 seconds or something.
(microwave humming)
- (imitating Barry's voice) Hello there, it's Barry here,
and I just wanna say
Phoebe's my favourite daughter.
(Phoebe laughs)
- [Barry] It has cooked, lovely!
And the dough is still slightly,
not firm but just slightly soft.
I'm really happy, are you?
- Yes!
- [Barry] Well done, mate! And we're gonna add the icing,
I think, at the end.
There's one more microwave thing to do
with your mother.
- Okay.
(clap)
- Do you know,
your daughter doesn't need a stool anymore?
- Phoebe?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, she's as tall as me now.
- You're the same height, look at you!
- Yeah, I know!
- Right, this is....
(laughs)
You're the adult,
(Mrs. B laughs)
- and you've got the easiest one!
- Woo-hoo!
- We are gonna make
Rice Krispie treats.
- Yum!
- In a mug.
And of course, Rice Krispie treats are made
with Rice Krispies.
You could use Coco Pops,
if you wanna make chocolatey ones.
You get some mini marshmallows,
or you could just get standard marshmallows.
- [Mrs. B] Just there?
- [Barry] Yeah, that's cool!
I don't think we should go any further.
- No, cause it might be like marshmallow man.
(imitates explosion)
(microwave humming)
- Oh my gosh, they're pumping up!
(Barry laughs)
- [Barry] Yes!
- Ah!
I didn't pick them up.
- [Barry] This didn't happen with the kids, what's going on?
There you go.
- Are you sure this is the simplest? Ah!
- [Barry] Yes!
- Ah, they're all light and sticky, burning my fingers!
- [Barry] What are you doing?
It's going to stick to my fingers- ah!
- [Mrs. B] See?
- [Barry} All right.
- [Barry] So in there somewhere
is the butter at the bottom.
It's not fully melted,
but we want to mingle this all together.
Ah this is lush, look at this!
- [Mrs. B] Do you think we should add more marshmallows?
Or not? Will that just...
- That wasn't a question, folks.
That was a polite Mrs. B on camera saying,
"Do you think we should?"
If that was off camera, it'd be like,
"Right"
(bowls clanking)
- "shoving' them in!"
- [Barry] What are you doing?
- [Mrs. B] It's like the
giant cola bottle all over again!
- [Barry] It is, mate.
- [Mrs. B] There we go!
- [Barry] Actually, during that coke video,
that was some of the comments people were like,
"Mrs. B has got the patience of a saint!"
- Wait, really?
- Awful.
(microwave beeps)
(microwave hums)
- This is a cry for help
hidden in a YouTube video, honestly.
- It's all sticking again.
- [Barry] What are you doing?
- I don't know!
- [Barry] Really sorry about this,
but your mum's having trouble with mug cake.
Any tips for her?
- Try harder?
- [Barry] Try harder, yeah?
- Chill.
- [Barry] Just chill.
- Just gonna let you do your thing.
- I'll blast it for a few seconds.
- Yeah.
- [Mrs. B] All of that is now hardly anything!
(spoon clinking on glass)
- [Barry] Oh, wow!
Look at that!
But to be honest,
that is a lot for Rice Krispies.
- Okay.
- [Barry] So we've got whole jug
of them here.
- [Mrs. B] Right.
- [Barry] And stir like crazy
and get them coated,
and that will form
your Rice Krispie treat
in the mug.
(Rice Krispies rattling)
- [Barry] Packing it up like that.
(Rice Krispies crunching) - [Barry] See? And it'll bond,
you can see it happening already. Just gotta work with it.
(Mrs. B groans)
- [Mrs. B] Ah, hot! Hot! On my fingers!
This is horrible.
It's all sticking to me!
Just look at me!
- [Chloe] And he said you had the easiest!
- Yeah, I know!
- Meanwhile,
need to get your youngest daughter
off of her Nintendo Switch
to decorate icing sugar on her cheesecake?
There's a gadget for that.
(Rice Krispies crunching)
- Chloe!
- [Barry] This, Chloe...
You all right, Mrs. B?
- I've gone for the decorative look
of Rice Krispies around the edge of the mug.
- [Barry] Looks brilliant. Brilliant.
This is an amazing gadget
that dusts icing sugar
onto cheesecakes that you've made.
There you go!
(metal scraping)
- [Barry] Look at that. Not too much, stop!
Desserts in the pizzeria will be:
microwave cheesecake,
microwave cinnamon rolls,
and Mrs. Barry's special:
the microwave Rice Krispie treats.
- [Mrs. B] Oh my gosh...
- [Barry] Just pour on the top, there you go!
Is that cool?
- That looks so cool.
(spoon clinking on glass)
(chewing)
- That is yummy!
- Wow!
- That's really nice!
- I think we might have slightly overdone it
by like 10 seconds,
a little bit more chewy.
But if you do it any more than that
it can probably get quite tough.
That's good!
- I like it. - [Mrs. B] I like that!
- [Barry] That's good, yeah!
- Well done, Phoebs!
(Rice Krispies crackling)
- [Barry] Ah, my gosh, there we go! Right guys, you dig in.
- Mm! That's nice.
- That is really good!
- That is yummy.
- Let's try the cheesecake,
let's cut into it here, Chloe,
let's see if we get that cheesecake vibe.
All right! That came off quite nice.
- Hm, I don't know...
- Eggy.
- That's eggy.
- Kind of like...
- The biscuit base is soft
(splat)
- Yeah.
(laughter)
- Sort of sweet omelette.
- I think you could say that, yeah.
- [Barry] If you had to have it as aeroplane food,
like if someone gave it,
you know aeroplane food's a bit weird sometimes?
I would eat it.
But, nyeh...
