Do It Yoursef

Hey Everyone :)

Although I came across several, interesting kinds of food blogs this week, there was one in particular that struck me the most: http://www.livelovepasta.com/. LiveLovePasta is more like a family blog, set up by Kara, her husband Cliff and her sister Kelly, who started this blog to share their passion for food. Each day, one of them posts a recipe with step-by-step photos on various categories, from appetizers to desserts, including vegan and vegetarian recipes as well. With this blog, it’s all about creativity, and the best part is that most of the recipes don’t require a long preparation time and are super easy on the cook.

My sister and I tried like three dessert recipes (yeah, we definitely have a sweet tooth) and were really impressed by just how easy they were to do, and not to mention how delicious they were, especially the “Nutella Mug Cake” which took us only 5 minutes to do. Seriously. At first, we thought there is definitely a spelling mistake, because it said the preparation time was about 1,5-3 minutes in the microwave, but it turned out to be true. It’s simply delicious and perfect for those late night study sessions when you’re craving for something sweet and don’t want to settle for some old cookies. ;) So go ahead and give it a try!

Here is how it’s done:

Ingredients
3 tablespoons self-rising flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons Nutella
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions
Combine all ingredients in a large coffee mug. Whisk well with a fork until smooth. Microwave on high for 1½– 3 minutes. (Time depends on microwave)

ENJOY!
