Hey everyone it's James from funfoods and
today I'm gonna make this quick and easy
mug cake now this is a perfect recipe to
make if you're in the mood for cake but
you don't want to make a giant recipe
and you don't want to have a whole bunch
left over so keep watching and I'll show
you step-by-step how to make this the
first going to start off with a coffee
mug make sure this coffee mug is
microwavable that's very important here
next we're going to add is two
tablespoons of sugar just regular
granulated sugar 2 tablespoons of flour
all purpose flour also two tablespoons
of cocoa this is a special dark
chocolate cocoa but you can use regular
chocolate if you like you would like and you want a dash of
salt and then we're just going to mix
this up all of our dry ingredients
once that's mixed up next we're going to
add is two tablespoons of melted butter
pour that in there and have one large egg
i'm just going to lightly beat this
pour that in there and two tablespoons of
milk a half a teaspoon of vanilla
extract and we're just gonna mix us up
until it's all mixed in there really
good and also have a handful of
chocolate chips gonna put that in there
and mix that in now just take this put
in microwave on high for about one and a
half minutes to 2 minutes
you gotta watch it every microwaves a
little different so watchers will start
to puff up to the top
thats when it's done. And when its done cooking
pull it out of the microwave use something to
protect yourself because your mug might
be hot
also we'll just let this cool down for
about 15 minutes
now i'm gonna make my frosting for the
cake I don't need much that's why I'm
doing this by hand if I want to make a
whole bunch of use a big whisk but i have
about a tablespoon and a half about 2
tablespoons of butter just softened at
room temperature and i have also about 3
tablespoons of peanut butter
now i'm going to just mix this up really
good
about a half a teaspoon of vanilla extra
I have a whole cup of confectioner's sugar
i probably won't use the whole cup but
all use a little bit of time and then
mix it in and if it's too dry like this
just add a little bit of milk only a
little bit at a time
so I used about a quarter cup to half a
cup of confectionery sugar you're just
gonna have to play with it a bit to find
the right consistency now you can make
it more creamy I want to be nice and
thick so it's not gonna be very creamy
or you can just go about it and buy your
own premade frosting for your cake now
I'm going to put this into a piping bag
now our mug cake has cool down enough so i can
touch it and it's not gonna burn me i'm
just going to take my frosting that I
put in my piping bag here and I'm gonna
Frost the top I'm not gonna put a lot on
there because I don't need a lot and
just to top it off i have a little bit
of cocoa in here and I'm just gonna dust
it a bit now let's give this a shot and
see how it tastes so I'm just going to
get a little bit of that frosting
I'm gonna dig in
it's very good it's very rich it's very
moist it's not a dry cake at all so I hope
you get a chance to try it out yourself
