Instruction

  • <p>Measure the peanut butter and sugar into the mug. Crack in the eggs, and whisk everything together using a fork. Once the batter is fully combined – it should go around three-quarters of the way up the mug – put it in the microwave and heat on high for 1 to 2 minutes.</p> <p>In my 700W microwave (category D), it takes exactly 1 minute, 45 seconds – but don’t worry if yours is diff erent. Just watch through the glass so you can see the cake slowly rise around 2.5cm over the edge of the mug. It will sink a little as soon as the heat stops, but if it falls below the mug rim, blast it for another 5 to 10 seconds – it’s ready when it stays risen.</p> <p>Use an oven glove or tea towel on the handle of the mug to take it out of the microwave. Let the cake cool for a minute before digging in.</p> <p>Tip: Try cashew or almond butter instead of peanut, or you can even use chocolate hazelnut spread. If you’re feeling particularly indulgent, add another spoonful on top before eating – it will go all gooey as it starts to melt into the cake.</p>
