  • 3 tablespoons water
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 ⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons cookie crumbs
  • 3 marshmallows

Equipment

  • mug

Directions
 

  1. Stir the base ingredients together in a microwavable mug.
  2. If you are not cooking it right away, refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
  3. Microwave for 45 to 60 seconds (this is for 1200W).
  4. When the cake is firm, add the cookie crumbs and marshmallows on top.
  5. Microwave for 20 more seconds to soften the marshmallows. Serve warm, ideally with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

A mug that holds about 6 oz (¾ to 1 cup) works best; watch so it doesn’t overflow or overcook. Egg-free. Safety: raw flour; cook until firm.
