Vanilla and chocolate variations. Hubby wasn’t home so I had to eat both *sigh*

For my first post I thought I’d better start with something sickly and oh so lazy so you know exactly what kind of revolting individual you are dealing with! It’s my adaptation of a recipe I found online for a microwave choc chip cookie, only I’d run out of eggs and was too lazy to go out and buy more! It goes like this:

1/4 cup + 1 tbsp flour

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 tbsp white sugar

2 tbsp vegetable oil /melted butter

3 drops vanilla essence/flavouring

Splash milk to moisten as needed

Dump all ingredients into a regular sized mug and mix well. Microwave for 1 minute. Spoon into face.

I added chocolate Sprinkles,  but you could add chocolate chips, nuts, a glob of peanut butter, Nutella, raspberry jam etc etc! Add a scoop of ice cream too if you want to feel really sick!

Variations :

Replace 1 tbsp flour for 1 tbsp cocoa powder for a gooey chocolate mug cake.

Add an egg for a tighter cake. You may not need the milk in this case.

If you feel like being slightly less gross,  you can replace the oil with fat free vanilla yoghurt  (you’ll need the egg to bind the mixture)

Hope you enjoy and come back for more lazy gal ideas!
