Coffee Cake in a Mug

As my fiancé doesn't like peanut butter and I really didn't fancy making a whole different dessert I found this stupidly easy dessert to make. Not entirely sure why it's called coffee cake as there's no coffee in the recipe but regardless it tastes good. Recipe found on http://realmomkitchen.com

Ingredient

Food ration :

1 serving

Cooking time :

5 mins

1 tbsp

butter, softened

3 tbsp

sugar

2 tbsp

applesauce

dash

vanilla extract

2 tbsp

flour

pinch

(1/8 tsp) baking powder

pinch

salt

1 tbsp

butter

1 tbsp

brown sugar

1/4 tsp

ground cinnamon

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a small bowl, add the butter and sugar. Stir until well combined.

* Step 2

Add the applesauce, vanilla, flour, baking powder and salt. Stir until just combined.

* Step 3

Spread the mixture evenly in the bottom of a mug.

* Step 4

In another small bowl, add the struesel ingredients and mix the butter in using a fork until its a lumpy mixture.

* Step 5

Place the struesel on top of the batter in the mug.

* Step 6

Cook in the microwave for 50-80 seconds. Begin with 50 seconds and then microwave at 5 second intervals until the top looks barely set. I did follow the instructions to the T however it did take slightly longer that 80 seconds for me it took 90 seconds.

* Step 7

Let it rest for 10 minutes as it will come out very hot and then top with whipping cream.

* Step 8

Tip: I quadrupled the recipe as I was making it for 4. I did find that the cake batter came out a little dry so I did mix in a whole egg and about 4 tbsp of whole milk. If you find that yours is a little on the dry side mix in 1 tbsp in at a time until it gets to the right consistency.
