The ultimate 'come home drunk' food
Discussion
What's yours? I'm talking the kind of food that you get in from the pub/party etc and just want. Something quick and easy that both fills a hole and lays the path for a less violent hangover.
I recently discovered the 5 minute chocolate cake in a cup which is absolutely ideal for me - Spongey enough to soak up some of the ale, sweet enough to wake my mouth up a bit yet also quick enough that I don't fall asleep stood up making it.
recipe if you're interested:
3 table spoons plain flour (not self raising!),
3 table spoons sugar
2 table spoons cocoa powder
1/4 tea spoon baking powder
1 egg
2 table spoons oil
2 table spoons milk.
- Mix all dry ingredients in a large coffee mug, add egg and mix well, add oil & milk and mix again.
- Microwave for 2.5 to 3 minutes (it may spill over the top, so kitchen roll on the base is advised!)
- Either set out onto a plate or eat out of the mug.

The Cake in a Mug has been fantastic for us, sitting at just under 300,000 views on Youtube at the mo!
My favourite for coming home drunk though is a quesadilla...just have a few stacked up in the fridge, and only take 5 min or so to cook up when you get home!

Dammit! I though I'd invented something new with this cake in a mug thing! Can't access YouTube at work, but is the recipe the same/similar to mine?My favourite for coming home drunk though is a quesadilla...just have a few stacked up in the fridge, and only take 5 min or so to cook up when you get home!

Haha it's similar...but ours takes less than 5 minutes ;-)We've got a couple of different versions...a chocolate one and a white chocolate and cranberry one!
