Below are the recipes for 3 different types of 5-minute mug cakes (Nutella, Oreo, and strawberries & creme) to make while you’re stuck in quarantine.  I recommend watching the video below first. 🙂

 

For the base: 

4 tablespoons of flour 

3 tablespoons of sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1 tablespoon oil 

½ teaspoon of baking powder

3 tablespoons milk

 

Add to make the Nutella mug cake:

2 tablespoons of cocoa powder

1 tablespoon of Nutella (or any hazelnut spread)

 

Mix in the cocoa powder and place the Nutella on the top of the batter without mixing it in. Place in microwave for 90 seconds to 2 minutes.  

 

Add to make the strawberries and creme mug cake: 

3-5 diced strawberries

 

Mix them in with your base and place in microwave for 90 seconds to 2 minutes.

 

 

Add to make the Oreo mug cake:

4-6 crushed Oreos (or any chocolate sandwich cookie)

 

Mix them in with your base and place in microwave for 90 seconds to 2 minutes.

 

Add whipped cream!
