    Tips For Making A Biscoff Mug Cake

    Don't Over-Mix The Cake

    It will turn out to be dense and inedible. Be patient and fold the flour in with a small spoon.

    Don't Over-Cook The Cake

    After the mug cake has been in for one minute, keep checking on it every 10 seconds.

    Use A Microwave-Safe Mug

    Make sure that your mug doesn't have any metallic parts are this is a danger hazard.

    What Is A Mug Cake?

    A mug cake is literally a cake that you can make inside a mug or a large ramekin. As they are much smaller than ordinary cakes they require minimal ingredients.

    You also often cook them inside a microwave for speed as opposed to a conventional oven.

    Why You Will Love This Mug Cake

    • It only takes 1 minute to cook.
    • The texture is so soft and delicious.
    • This recipe is a Biscoff lover's dream.
    • It is topped with MORE melted Biscoff spread and Biscoff cookie crumbs.
    • This recipe is fully dairy-free and vegan.

    Variations & Substitutions

    • Add some extra toppings and fillings. Try mixing in some chocolate chips to the cake batter. I really recommend it. I also love to add some store-bought, dairy-free whipped cream on top from time to time.

    How To Serve This Mug Cake

    Serve with extra melted Biscoff spread which can be drizzled on top and then you can also sprinkle on some Biscoff biscuit crumbs too.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is Lotus Biscoff spread vegan?

    Yes, Biscoff spread is 100% vegan.

    Why is my mug cake dense?

    If you over-mix the mug cake batter, it may become chewy.

    Why is my mug cake dry?

    This could be because you left it in the microwave for too long. The mug cake will continue to cook when it exits the microwave so I often advise slightly underbaking them.

    How To Store Your Mug Cake

    I recommend that you eat this mug cake, fresh as soon as you cook it. Alternatively, you can cover the mug with plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for the rest of the day.

    Description

    If you love easy recipes, you'll love this vegan biscoff mug cake which is so simple and so tasty. Top with extra melted biscoff and enjoy.


    Ingredients

    Scale

    For the mug cake batter:

    • 2.5 Tablespoons Biscoff spread
    • 4 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1.5 Tablespoons brown sugar
    • 4 Tablespoons soy milk
    • 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil

    For the topping:

    • Melted Biscoff spread (to taste)
    • Biscoff cookie crumbs (to taste)

    Instructions

    Make the mug cake:

    1. Add the Biscoff spread to a microwave-safe mug or large ramekin. Melt it inside the microwave for roughly 30 seconds until it melts. It may be a few seconds more (or less) depending on the power of your microwave. It should be runny.
    2. Next, mix in the all-purpose flour, baking powder and brown sugar until combined.
    3. Pour in your soy milk and vegetable oil then fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients. The batter should be just combined.
    4. Cook the mug cake in the microwave for 70-80 seconds. Once it gets past the 1-minute mark, keep checking on it as every microwave is different. I like mine to be slightly underbake don top as it will continue to cook as it cools at room temperature.
    5. Top the mug cake with extra melted Biscoff spread and Biscoff cookie crumbs.
