Hi Guys, Krissie here!
I’m sure many of you are aware of the ‘mug meals’ trend that was all over the internet a few months ago, but if not, let me update you. Many recipes were devised in which the entire meal could be made in a mug and cooked in the microwave, keeping dirty dishes to a minimum.
The fad started with desserts, the most popular of which were the brownie and the cookie, and it wasn't long until recipes for things like quiches and even meatloaf started popping up online. These meals became extremely popular among university students, as they reduced washing up time, and only required mugs, cutlery and a microwave.
Many of the meals are fairly healthy, and are adaptable to suit personal tastes.
Last night, my roommate and I gave the cookie in a mug a go. We searched around for some recipes, and decided on this one, primarily because we already had all of these ingredients in the house. Instead of using choc chips, I decided to use some frozen raspberries, and a few white choc chips. The end results was much more successful than I expected it to be! We also discovered that the cookies are brilliant with some vanilla ice cream (although the ice cream tends to melt through the cookie, but it tastes amazing)!
