Ingredients

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:

  • 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.
  • Next, mix in the all-purpose flour, baking powder and brown sugar until combined.
  • Pour in your soy milk and vegetable oil then fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients. The batter should be just combined.
  • 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 under-baked on top as it will continue to cook as it cools at room temperature.
  • Top the mug cake with extra melted Biscoff spread and Biscoff cookie crumbs.

Notes

  • Over-mixing the mug cake batter will cause the cake to be dense and inedible. Be patient and fold the flour in with a small spoon until it is all completely combined.
  • After the mug cake has been in the microwave for one minute, keep checking on it every 10 seconds. Leaving it in for 70-80 seconds is always the optimal length of time for me. Any longer and you risk it being over-cooked.
  • Make sure that the mug you wish to use doesn't have any metallic parts as this is a major danger hazard.
