Sometimes it becomes very necessary to find out a way to deal with a child who has a sudden 'cake craving'. With my OTG sent out for servicing, I was not sure how to make a quick cake.
Then,I asked Srivalli if a MW cake would qualify for the Bake-a-thon and she gave me a thumbs up!Since I was at mom's place for the week end, I thought it will be fun to try out a cake in the Microwave and that's exactly what I did. I baked a MW eggless fruit cake and this Coffee cake.
I looked up a couple of recipes on the net and concocted my own single serve cake. Will you believe if I told you that the total time to make this cake is as low as 2 minutes and the cake get gets done on 30 seconds!!!
I used:
Dry ingredients
All purpose flour- 2 tablespoons
Powdered sugar- 1 tablespoon
Cocoa Powder- 1/2 teaspoon
Instant coffee powder- 1/4 teaspoon
Baking powder-1/4 teaspoon
Salt- a pinch
Wet ingredients
Milk-2 tablespoons
Oil- 3/4 teaspoon
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Then add the wet ingredients and mix well so that there are no lumps. Divide the batter between two small cups or one large MW safe mug. Microwave @ 60 % power for 30 seconds or till the cake is done....
Serve immediately with a chocolate sauce / as such...
Note:
- I baked this cake in a 100 ml paper tea cup. You can use any microwave safe container.
- My microwave is 1200 watts and I bakes at 60 % power in the microwave mode.
- The oven timings will vary so bake in an instalment of 25 seconds
- Do not over bake the cake as it will get tough on the outside.
Here are the other bakes that are a part of this Bake- A - Thon group....
This super easy goes to Nayna's Let's Cook Christmas Party Foods event.
Bon Appetit...
