5-Minute Microwave Cake
Description
The baking is simple and quick. With the ingredients listed above, you can make one muffin—feel free to increase the quantities for more. To make a 5-minute microwave muffin, you can also add nuts or, for example, place a chocolate candy inside—then you'll have a chocolate-filled muffin! I think everyone has all the necessary ingredients at home, as well as a microwave. So go ahead, try it! Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.

Step 6
Pour the resulting mixture into a mug. It usually fills about half the mug, maybe a little more. The cake will rise further during cooking, so leave some space. Place it in the microwave, set the maximum power, and cook for 3 minutes (you can go up to 3.5 minutes, or even 5 minutes if your microwave has low power). The cake may rise above the rim of the mug—don't worry, it will settle down.

Let the 5-minute microwave mug cake cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar and serve directly in the mugs.
