Brownies in a cup
Perhaps the ultimate in indulgence is brownies in a mug. In addition to being rich, they are easy to prepare, served in individual portions and will only take you 5 minutes to prepare in the microwave.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup flour (50g)
- 1/4 cup sugar (70g)
- 2 tbsp (13 g) cocoa (unsweetened)
- A pinch of s alt
- A hint of cinnamon
- 1/4 cup water (60ml)
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil (not olive oil, because of its strong taste)
- 1 to 2 drops of vanilla extract
- A small dollop of ice cream or whipped cream for serving.
Place the flour, sugar, cocoa, s alt and cinnamon in a microwave-safe ceramic mug. Mix the dry ingredients with a fork, making sure the powder is well blended. Add oil, water and vanilla and mix well. Place your mug in the microwave, on high, for 1:40 (1 minute 40 seconds). Let cool for a minute and add your ice cream or whipped cream before serving while still warm.
Nutella Fudge
Do the best chocolate fudges contain Nutella? Mix together 3.25 cup milk and 1/3 cup Nutella, blend and freeze your mixture in a popsicle mold. You can replace a little milk with cream for a creamier and more indulgent texture.
S'mores in a cup
You can turn ordinary hot chocolate into a s'more drink. All you have to do is roll the rim of your mug in chocolate syrup, then roll the rim of your mug with graham cracker crumbs. Fill your mug with hot chocolate and add marshmallows. For an even more spectacular effect, lightly brown your marshmallows in the oven, taking care not to burn yourself when taking out your cups.
Oatmeal rocks withoutcooking
These delicious no-bake cookies are easy to make and are a real favorite with kids. Boil 2 cups of sugar, ½ cup of milk, ½ cup of butter and ½ cup of cocoa in a cauldron for 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat and add 3 cups of oatmeal, a cup of coconut and a tablespoon of vanilla. Place spoon cookies on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper and let stand.
