It’s not always so easy to have the time to bake at home with the children, our life’s are busy. So for this weeks cooking activity I thought let’s try our hands at this microwave vanilla cake. Looks good I wonder if it taste good. I’m going to give it a try myself today and see what happens. First time for me baking in a microwave! 😬
Get out your measuring spoons and measuring cup sets and let your children learn how easy it is to measure out their own single-sized mug of vanilla cake batter.
Ingredients
• 2 Tablespoons egg substitute (like Egg Beaters)
• 2 Tablespoons butter, softened or melted
• 1/3 cup flour
• 3 Tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 Tablespoons half and half or milk
• 2 Tablespoons rainbow sprinkles
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2-3 drops pink or red food coloring
Directions
1. In a small bowl, stir together egg substitute, butter, flour, sugar, vanilla, 2 Tablespoons of half and half, and 1 Tablespoon of rainbow sprinkles.
2. Place in an extra large mug. Microwave for 60 seconds, wipe any of the batter that has bubbled over the edge, then return to the microwave for an additional 30 seconds.
3. Remove the cake and place it in the fridge. While it’s cooling, stir together powdered sugar, 1 Tablespoon half and half, and food coloring. Drizzle over slightly warm cake. Sprinkle and enjoy this easy microwave dessert recipe!
