Honey Mug Cake
Ingredients for the Cake:
-
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp runny honey
- 1 medium egg
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp light brown sugar
- 4 tbsp self-raising flour, see notes
- pinch of salt
Ingredients for the Frosting:
-
- tbsp butter, softened
- 4 tbsp icing (confectioners’) sugar
- (optional) runny honey
Instructions (make in your MogoBox 15 oz. Classic White Mug):
-
- Add the butter to a mug and melt in the microwave for around 10-20 seconds.
- Add the honey, egg and vanilla and beat with a fork until combined.
- Add the sugar, flour and salt and beat again until fully combined and smooth.
- Cook in the microwave for around 1 minute 15 seconds to 1 minute 30 seconds (depending on your microwave power), then allow to cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, to make the frosting, add the butter and icing (confectioners’) sugar to another mug and use a fork to cut the butter into the icing sugar until it reaches a clumpy texture, then beat with the fork until fluffy, around 1-2 minutes.
- Spoon the frosting into a small piping bag or a ziplock bag fitted with an open star or plain round tip and pipe a swirl onto the top of the cooled cake.
- (Optional) Drizzle with extra honey and serve immediately.
Notes:
-
- If you do not have self-raising flour, substitute with plain (all-purpose) flour and add ¼ tsp baking powder.
- Don’t fancy drizzling the honey? Just add between ¼-½ tsp runny honey to the frosting to taste. Hey presto, honey flavoured frosting!
