"Cooking for the Lost Chef's!"

   Hey guys! Me again! It's F I N A L L Y time for the first "Cooking for the Lost Chef's" post! Y E S ! Here it is! Hope you enjoy it, let me know if you do in the comments below!

   Okay, so the purpose of this series is to help out the Lost Chef's. This is for the ones who don't know what they can do, haven't tried, or just think they can't do it! Well, get this, Y O U  C A N ! So, here's a super easy recipe that you can whip together in a mug! A C A K E in a mug? Yes, a cake in a mug! Two dishes & you're done! It's even cooked in a microwave, making it perfect for college students! This is so easy you can't even complain. I'm N O T going to say that you can't mess up though. Because, truth is, you can. & you probably will. But cooking isn't about not making mistakes. It's about not giving up. Just because you put baking soda in instead of baking powder doesn't mean that your life is ruined, or that you can't try again & get it right. Don't give up, because then you'll never learn to love cooking and you'll never read my blog again! Anyway, here it is!

Nutella Mug Cake

Ingredients

4 tablespoons self rising flour
4 tablespoons white granulated sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons Nutella
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil

Method

1. Combine all ingredients in a large coffee mug. Whisk well with a fork until smooth. Microwave on high for 1 1/2 – 3 minutes. (Time depends on microwave wattage. Mine took 1 /2 minutes.) 

2. Top with whipped cream and chocolate sauce if desired. 

Note: Depending on the wattage of your microwave, you may have to increase cooking time.

Makes 1 very large serving.

   So, I couldn't make this today because I didn't have cocoa powder, but I'm going to see if I can make it tonight & then I'll edit this post and add the picture!


   That's all for now! Stay Inspired!
