Strawberries and Cream Mug Cake

Here is what you will need to make 1.

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
• 1 Egg
• 2 tbsp Semi Skimmed Milk
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 3 tbsp Golden Caster Sugar
• 4 tbsp Self Raising Flour
• Pinch of Salt

For the Decoration

• 40ml Double Cream
• 1 tbsp Icing Sugar
• 1 tbsp Strawberry Jam
• Single Strawberry (optional)

Essential Equipment

• 350ml Mug

Instructions

Firstly, pop the butter into your mug and melt in the microwave in 10 second intervals.

Then add in the egg, milk & vanilla and mix with a fork until it’s blended.

Next add the sugar, flour & salt and beat one final time until nice & smooth.

Cook in the microwave for: 600W – 1 min 25 secs | 800W – 1 min 15 secs | 1000W – 1 min 5 secs.

If you have the patience, leave it to cool while we quickly make the topping!

Then with either a whisk or fork, whip up the cream with the icing sugar until it forms stiff peaks.

Finally, dollop the jam on top of the cake followed by the sweetened cream. You can even pop a strawberry on the top if you’re feeling fancy!

Come on, you can’t tell me that doesn’t look tempting! It really is a delightful little treat. It’s probably the best mug cake in the world and so typically British it hurts! I strongly advise you use a good quality vanilla extract though, it makes all the difference I promise! In addition to that, Summer Strawberries are the perfect pairing. Make the most of them when they are around!

I hope you enjoyed the post my lovelies, until next time.
