Make a cake in a mug!

"With Cake in a Mug, you can have a hot, delicious, fresh-baked chocolate cake in minutes!"

Fancy something different with your afternoon tea or coffee. Then give this a go. 

What your need...

A microwave oven

A large microwavable mug

A tablespoon for measuring

4 Tablespoons flour

9 Tablespoons hot chocolate mix

1 Egg

3 Tablespoons water

3 Tablespoons oil

Cooking Spray

Instructions

1. Spray a little cooking spray into the mug.

2. Measure out the flour and hot chocolate mix into the mug. Stir.

3. Crack the egg into the mug. Stir a bit after adding the egg so the cup doesn't overflow.

4. Add water and oil.

5. Stir until thoroughly moistened. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the mug with your spoon to avoid any leftover pockets of dry ingredients.

Bake!

The handle of the mug may be hot, so use a potholder to remove it from the microwave.

Tip your cake cylinder out of the mug into a dish. Your cake may look a little damp and wrinkled. This is normal.

Use a fork to break it up into quarters. This will allow steam in the center to escape. Arrange so that the more attractive interior of the cake is showing.

Tag Teams

Since the introduction of our new grilling machine there have been a lot of people teaming up for some more adventurous sandwich making. As i mentioned before in an earlier post a toastie machine is a more creative way of eating lunch as well as my weird metaphor for the design department.

At the moment we have designers eating with accounts, creatives with development and other creative teams working together to create a better toasted sandwich. Steak was being grilled the other week!

Could one machine create a more cohesive working agency over lunch! Who knows.

ps. Any interesting toasted sandwiches filling anyone has it, let us know?
