10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

COFFEE AND COOKIES

** This post also contains affiliate links, and I will be compensated if you purchase a product after clicking on a link at no extra cost to you. Thank you!


When baking cookies, there are many things to consider. Find out what they are here with my 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie.

As you know we are getting close to the holidays, and you will have spectacular results if you follow these tips and use my cookie recipe.

Do this and you will be a hit at all your gatherings. Enjoy!


The best way to bake perfect cookies is to follow these simple steps:


1. Choose the Right Ingredients

Gather The Ingredients part of my10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

To make sure your cookies turn out perfectly, use only high-quality ingredients. This includes flour, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. If you add too much of any ingredient, your cookie will not taste as good.

When baking cookies, there are two main ingredients that determine whether the cookie turns out perfectly baked. These two ingredients are butter and eggs. Butter adds moisture to the dough while eggs add structure. If you want to create the perfect cookie, use both ingredients.


2. Measure Everything Carefully

Measure The Ingredients is an important step of 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

It’s also important to measure everything carefully when making cookies. You need to weigh the flour, sugar, and other ingredients so you can ensure the right proportions are used.

If you want them to be soft and chewy, use less flour than if you want them to be crisp and crunchy. Also, remember to preheat the oven before adding ingredients. And lastly, always grease cookie sheets properly.


3. Mix the Dough Properly

Kitchen Aid Mixer With Dough Hook

After measuring the dry ingredients, mix them together with the butter using either a mixer or by hand. Make sure the dough is well mixed and not lumpy. If you are using a mixer, use the dough hook for the best results.

When baking cookies, there are two things you should always remember: 1) Make sure to mix the dough properly; 2) Always use a cookie scoop to portion out the dough. If you don’t, you’ll end up with uneven baked cookies.

If the dough seems too sticky, add more flour until it becomes workable.


4. Let the Cookies Rest

Let the Cookies Rest is another crucial step in 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

Once the dough has been formed into balls, place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes.

When baking cookies, let them rest at least 15 minutes after removing them from the oven. If you try to eat them too soon, they won’t be soft enough. Also, if you use a cookie sheet, you should place the cookies directly onto the pan, rather than placing them on top of each other.

Remove from oven and let cool completely on a cooling rack before storing in an airtight cookie jar.


5. Bake at the Correct Temperature

Preheated Oven is a step of 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

When baking cookies, there are two things you should keep in mind: temperature and timing. First, you want to use a thermometer to ensure that your oven is set to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

Second, you want to allow the dough to rest before baking. If you try to bake the cookie dough immediately after mixing it, the dough will be too soft and won’t hold its shape.

Baking your cookies at too high a temperature will burn them before they set up. This means that when you take them out of the oven, they will still be soft.

You should also avoid baking them too cold because they won’t spread properly. Make sure you pre-heat the oven before you place the cookies in there.


6. Use the Right Size Baking Sheet

Using the Right Size Baking Sheet is essential for 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

The size of the baking sheet will determine the size of your cookies. If you use a cookie sheet that is too small, then your cookies will run together and will not bake evenly, and they are hard to separate when this happens. Hince, you will end up with funny shaped cookies that you won’t be able to decorate.

If you use too big of a cookie sheet this could lead to your cookies spreading out too much and this may cause them to burn.


7. Cool Cookies Before Decorating Them

Cake Cooling Rack Part of 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

When you remove hot cookies from the oven, the cookie dough will still be incredibly soft. So, it is best to place them on a cooling rack. Let them completely cool before decorating them with frosting or icing.

If the cookies are warm and you attempt to frost or ice them, you will end up with a mess! The frosting or icing will simply run off the cookies.


8. Cornstarch Instead of Extra Flour

Clabber Girl Corn Starch is a must for 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

It is better to use cornstarch instead of flour if you need your cookie dough thicker. Flour can toughen cookies, but cornstarch won’t change the texture of your dough at all!

Adding too much flour will cause your cookies to be heavy and dense, changing the delicious flavor and texture of the cookies.


9. Plan for Holiday Cookies

Planning Ahead is very important part of 10 Tips for THE Perfect Cookie

If you are cooking cookies for any event, it is best to decide which cookies you plan to serve and if they require decorating with frosting, icing, or just sprinkles.

Did you know that most cookie dough can be made ahead of time and left in the fridge over night? Or you can make a batch of your favorite cookies and freeze them until you are ready to decorate them.

Cookie dough can be kept in the freezer for about 3 months. If not used within the 3-month period, it will lose some of its freshness.

FYI: Did you know using a Party Planner can help keep you organized during the holiday season and throughout the year?


10. Parchment Paper Please

Reynolds Parchment Paper

If you have never used parchment when baking cookies, you don’t know what you are missing! When I discovered parchment paper a few years back, I was amazed at the ease of using it and most of all the quick clean-up.

Once you use parchment paper for baking your cookies, you will wonder how you have survived without it all these years. I know I did!

This stuff is the best invention since the wheel!


Peanut Butter Cookies

Frosting vs. Icing: The Differences Explained

Butter or Frosting

** This post also contains affiliate links, and I will be compensated if you purchase a product after clicking on a link at no extra cost to you. Thank you!


Do you know the difference between frosting and icing? No worries, in “Frosting vs Icing: The Differences Explained” will tell you everything you need to know.

In baking, frosting is the mixture of butter or shortening and powdered sugar used to cover cakes. Frosting vs. Icing: The Differences Explained will help you to know how each one is made.

There is a particularly important distinction between frosting and icing. Many people think that they are the same. That is not true, and understanding the differences is a matter of looking at each ingredient.

Frosting and Icing are both essential when it comes to decorating cakes and cupcakes with beautiful designs. Many of you who follow Bake with Nana, might be wondering, what is the difference between Frosting and Icing?

The difference comes down to the consistency of the product. For instance, Frosting is thicker than Icing. So, if you are using frosting to decorate a cake or cupcake, it will not run off the top of your creation like icing will.

Let us look more closely at the differences. Enjoy!


What is Frosting?

Butter-part of Frosting vs. Icing: The Differences Explained

The frosting is thick, creamy, and fluffy, and is made using butter, shorting, powdered sugar, and sometimes cream cheese.

You spread it with a spatula, knife, or pipe it through a pastry bag. Frosting is used for decorations on cakes and cupcakes.

Frosting stays soft and fluffy and is used to decorate cakes and cupcakes, however, cream cheese frosting is not good for piping through a bag because of its thick texture.

But you can use sprinkles, colored sugars, confetti, or pearls to create a stunning cake.


What is Icing?

Sugar Cookies With Royal Icing part of Frosting vs. Icing: The Differences Explained


Icing is a type of thin glaze that is applied to the surface of a baked cake or cookies. Icing is typically more delicate than frosting because it is made with confectioner’s sugar and water.

I can cover an area like a cookie without having to pipe it on and covers the surface quickly. This type of icing is not good for stacking cookies.


Both Frosting and Icing Have Their Uses

Cream Cheese Frosting is another of Frosting vs. Icing: The Differences Explained

Although frosting and icing are used to decorate cakes, there are some differences between them. The frosting is typically thicker than icing and has more air incorporated into it. I often use it as a final addition to add extra sweetness to a cake.

On the other hand, icing is thinner and smoother than frosting. I use it to fill gaps in my cakes and on my cookies.


You Should Use Whichever One Best Suits Your Needs

A Woman Deciding on Frosting vs. Icing: The Differences Explained

If you’re looking for a simple explanation of the difference between frosting and icing, here’s what you need to know. I use butter or shortening along with powdered sugar to make the frosting.

This combination creates a thick paste that covers the top of a cake. I use a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip to apply the frosting.


I make the icing using water, powdered sugar, and sometimes milk or cream. And this combination makes an extremely smooth and thin paste that fills in any gaps between the layers of a cake. I apply it using a small spoon or spatula.


Now Let’s Look at Some Textures and Styles of Frosting and Icing


Frosting:

Swiss Meringue Buttercream Is a classic frosting I make with egg whites. I must beat until stiff peaks are formed. Finally, I then mix it with butter and sugar.

American Buttercream I make this frosting using equal parts confectioner’s sugar and butter. I often flavor it with vanilla. But you can also make chocolate buttercream frosting as well. Delicious! 😋

The thing about buttercream frosting is that it is so easy to use for decorating your cakes and cupcakes. It’s not too sweet and it’s very tasty.

Cream Cheese-Another favorite frosting of mine. Talk about delicious! Note: this is not good for decorating. It is way too thick for that, but you can make a beautiful cake using sprinkles, confetti, etc.


Icing:

Chocolate Ganache Is an exceptionally smooth texture with a satin finish and will give any cake you make a very elegant look. You can garnish with fresh fruit, sprinkles, or whatever you like to add a final change. You only need 2 ingredients to create beautiful icing.

Basic Powdered Sugar- This is an extremely easy one to make with only 3 ingredients that will give your baked goods just a little dash of sweetness for some added flavor. I consider it a wet icing because it does not dry hard. Take extra care if you pack them up for transport. Excellent for cinnamon rolls.

My Love Affair with Baking

Tiny Glass Mixing Bowls

A Bakers Love Story by Nana was inspired by my awesome mama. My love affair with baking began when I was just a little girl. My mom was a homemaker and loved to bake, so it makes sense that I would grow up to enjoy the same hobby at such an early age. My mom taught me how to bake in the kitchen with her.

When I was about 12 years old, I asked her for my own set of mixing bowls. My mom bought me a complete set of tiny little glass bowls. Yes, they were cute, but boy did they take forever to get the batter out of them after you were done mixing.

I also remember trying to scrape the batter off the tiny little glass bowls with a butter knife. That was not fun at all!


My Own Real Baking Supplies

Measuring Cups and Spoons Baking with Nana: A Bakers Love Story

The first time I ever had my own real baking supplies was when I got into home economics in high school. I attended Villa Rica High School in Villa Rica, Georgia which is where I learned how to bake with real measuring cups and spoons.

I remember making my very first cake, a Red Velvet cake for Christmas. I was 13 years old when I made it and it turned out beautiful and it was quite delicious if I do say so myself. It was so moist, and my family loved it! After that, I was hooked on baking.


Mom, My Great Teacher

Young Daughter and Mom Baking with Nana: A Bakers Love Story

My mom told me what an excellent job I had done. “Well,” I said, “I had a great teacher!” Then I told my mom I wanted to learn how to make homemade biscuits, cornbread, etc.

And guess what? I did it, but not without mistakes along the way. But I was not discouraged, because that is how we learn.

I still make mistakes baking after all these years and you will too. Oh, sure it aggravates the daylights out of me, but you can’t give up, you just got to keep on keeping on. Even if that means starting all over again!! And believe me, honey, I have had to do that.


My Favorite Time of the Year

Nana's Santa Cake Baking with Nana: A Bakers Love Story

I love to cook when I have the time, which I do most days. My favorite time of the year is the holidays. I enjoy getting in my kitchen and baking cakes, cookies, pies, fudge, bread, and actual food.

Are there any other foods besides sweets? Just kidding, of course, there are. I just really enjoy baking sweets.

During the holidays I like making goodies for my family and friends. It just makes me feel good to give them something I have baked homemade, and they always have a big smile on their face and dig in immediately.

It warms my heart to see them enjoying the fruits of my labor. Plus, it makes them feel a little more special and loved.

8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking

Frustrated Baker

You don’t have to be an expert baker to bake delicious treats. In fact, baking is one of the easiest things to do. Read on to discover 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking.

Baking is a term that describes many diverse types of food preparation techniques. Some people call this type of cooking baking while others call it pastry or custard making.

The word bake comes from the Old English word for bread, which was called Half or loaf. This means cooking something in a hot oven.

Are you ready for 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking? Let’s do it!


1. You need a little extra dough.

Cookie Dough Part of 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking

When you are baking, there are instances when you will need to use more dough than the recipe calls for. This is especially true when it comes to cookies.

If you are making chocolate chip cookies, you will need to use more dough than the recipe calls for to make all your cookies about the same size.

If you use too much dough for your mold, just use the extra dough and make a few smaller cookies or roll it out and create your own cookie-cutter shapes.


2. You will always forget something.

Woman Forgot Something On Her Shopping List another one of 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking

Yes, unfortunately, you will always forget something you need for your recipe. I have been baking for many years, and I forget stuff all the time! Always make a grocery list to help you remember things.

So frustrating. Luckily, my hubby is kind enough to go to the store for me and get what I need. But the good news is you can always be getting other things ready for your baking.

You know, like measuring your ingredients, getting your pans oiled and floured, pre-heating the oven, etc.


3. You will need extra stuff.

Collection of Pans that 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking Mentions

If you bake a lot of cakes like I do, especially around the holidays, you will need more than two round pans for sure. That way you can get your cakes done even faster.

I got tired of baking two layers and having to wait for the pans I was using for the next cake. Long story short, I have two of every pan I use so that I don’t run into this problem.

I also have three sets of measuring cups, three sets of measuring spoons, and several spatulas. It just makes baking easier for me.


4. Please follow the recipe step by step!

Follow the Recipe Step by Step is one of My Crucial 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking

Trust me, when I tell you to do this, follow the recipe! If it tells you to mix the dry ingredients first, PLEASE do that. If it tells you to add one egg at a time and mix well before adding another egg, you’d better do it. Or I promise you terrible things will happen to your cake!

For instance, it won’t rise as it should. It will be heavy and dense, and it won’t be moist and delicious. I know this sounds crazy, but the recipe is in steps for a reason. Just do it, ok?

You will be glad you did it in the end. There’s nothing worse than spending time and energy on a cake to have it flop and you must start all over again.

Plus, it is a huge waste of supplies like flour, sugar, oil, eggs, etc. Do you get the picture?


5. Don’t open the oven door!

The Sunken Cake

Yep, you read that right. Don’t open the oven before the cake is done or it will sink in the middle. And you can’t fix that! Of course, your kids will love it because they have a nice little unexpected snack.

It’s always better to let it get done before you open the oven to avoid this mishap. Also, don’t let the kids run or stomp through the kitchen or it will make your cake sink in the middle as well.

At least that’s what my mama always told me. And mamas know best, right? 🤔


6. You will have lots of dirty dishes.

Dirty Dishes

Yes, this is sooo true. But luckily, I have a hubby that is willing to help me clean up not only the dishes, but the kitchen.

Let me tell you, I can make quite a mess when I am baking, especially cakes. Give me flour, sugar, and friend it’s on. I must spill the flour and sugar when measuring them.

My poor hubby went to the store for me (because of course I had forgotten something) and when he came back, he was like, “What in the world did you do?”

There was flour from one side of my counter to the other! 😂 I said, “Well honey you know how I am with the flour and sugar, sorry!” Oh, I also get crap on the floor too.


7. The cakes need to cool completely.

Cooling The Cakes

People, I promise you, you must let the cake cool completely before you can apply the frosting or icing. It will run off if the cake is still the least bit warm. Guess who found out the hard way. 😒 I know, live and learn I always say.

Next, I like to make a crumb coat, which is a thin layer of frosting, and then I put the cake in the fridge or freezer for about 20-30 minutes.

This keeps all those annoying crumbs out of your frosting. Then your cake will look wonderful.


8. Don’t be hard on yourself.

If You Wait For Perfect You'll Never Get Anything Done!

Don’t be hard on yourself if you mess up. It’s ok. Just learn from your mistakes and keep on baking. I have been baking for years and still make mistakes.

But guess what? The next time you will remember what you did wrong and correct it. Unfortunately, that’s how we learn to be better bakers and become better at anything we do.

We mess up, we learn, and move on. So, enjoy baking and have fun with it!


Conclusion of 8 Things Bakers Should Know Before Baking

CAKE AND COFFEE

I hope this helps you avoid some of the many mistakes I have made during my baking years. I still make mistakes from time to time, but my love for baking outweighs the mistakes I have made and will continue to make.

Like I said, just have fun with it and keep on baking.

Do you have any baking mistakes you would like to share with me? I would love to hear about them.

** This post also contains affiliate links, and I will be compensated if you purchase a product after clicking on a link at no extra cost to you. Thank you!


Do you have trouble keeping up with the demands of the holidays? Learn how to keep yourself sane with my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays.

It’s important not to let overwhelm seep in and keep you from enjoying the many gifts and blessings we receive during this time of year.

I love this time of the year even though it can get Harry Caray, so grab a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage and let me help you ease through the holidays with my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays.


10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays


1. Make a List and Check it Twice

Part of 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays is to Make a List

If you do not have a list already made up, it is time to get started! This is crucial during the holidays. The last thing you need to be thinking about is if you have everything you need for your big night.


2. Prioritize with my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

Family Time is another of my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

Spend time with those who matter most to you. Family and friends. Make sure you do not overwhelm yourself trying to fulfil everyone else’s expectations of you.


3. Simplify with my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

Simplify is another of my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

There is no need to arrive at every party or gathering with a plate of cookies to eat, or a dish to pass around. Arrive with a smile and be present with those who cross your path. If you don’t like to cook, go with a store-bought dish instead of making something from scratch.


4. Plan Your Menu with my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

Holiday Meal Planning is one of my 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

Planning your menu ahead of time can save you a lot of time and heartache. Don’t wait until the day before or the day of to try and figure out what you want to cook and serve. Do this at least a week in advance, I promise you will be glad that you did! A big-time saver!


5. Preparing Ahead of Time

Preparing Veggies is one of my favorite of 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

If you are like me and love to bake from scratch, make food ahead of time that you can freeze or just pop in the oven the next day. Doing simple things like chopping vegetables up, chopping up nuts, etc. the day before will save you valuable time.


6. Ask for Help

Asking for Help is another good tip of 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

This is one of the hardest things for me to do! I know, right? There is no shame in asking for help! I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, so I can’t do the things I used to do and that has been hard for me. Thankfully, my youngest daughter has taken over a lot of the cooking I use to do for the holidays. Now, don’t get me wrong, I still bake my cakes and cookies, because I am not willing to give that up yet! Lol! Oh, and my hubby cleans up my messes. Bless his heart!


7. Just Breathe

Take a Deep Breath

Yes, breathe and try to get in a little exercise. I know, I know. Who has the time? You are saying to me as you are reading this. It doesn’t have to be a lengthy process, just do some stretching, breathing exercises, etc. The reason for this is when we get stressed out or anxious, we tend to hold our breath or breathe very shallowly.


8. Laughing is the Best Medicine

Laughing with Family is Good Medicine

Yep, you read this one right. Laughing reduces your stress levels, soothes tension, helps you breathe deeper, improves your immune system, improves your mood, relieves pain, plus more! Who would ever think laughing could do so much good? 🤔


9. Be Grateful

Gratitude is my favorite of the 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

Stop and think about all the things you should be grateful for. Be thankful to God for your good health, your family, and your friends. Not to mention all the things that you should be grateful for throughout the year. Try writing down 6-8 things you are grateful for in your life. Try it, you will be surprised how much better you will feel.


10. Spend Some Time Relaxing

Relaxing Back Massage

Yessss, honey, be good to yourself. All the cooking and cleaning, hosting, etc. It’s time to do something good and kind just for YOU! Put it on your list to get a gift card for a massage if someone asked what you would like for Christmas. You can always put that little bug in your hubby’s ear. 😉


Conclusion to 10 Tips-How to Survive the Holidays

We all know it! Christmas time is a stressful time for a lot of us. It’s a time of the year that drains us of our energy and motivation. It’s a time when we feel the need to prove ourselves as great wives, moms, daughters, or whatnot.

So, it is especially important that you be good to yourself and others during this time of stress. Make sure to take time for yourself to decompress to keep from getting too stressed out.

Please don’t be afraid or ashamed to ask for help if things are getting to be too much for you. It’s ok to ask for help and your family will be glad to pitch in, I promise!

Yellow Cake with Chocolate Frosting

** This post also contains affiliate links, and I will be compensated if you purchase a product after clicking on a link at no extra cost to you. Thank you!


How to Make the Best Yellow Butter Cake by following my 5 Tips to Perfect Yellow Butter Cake. You will be enjoying this cake for years to come! It is so moist and delicious.

The yellow butter cake is a classic American dessert that has been around for over 100 years. It’s made with flour, sugar, and butter. This simple recipe will give you the best results when you follow the directions exactly. So, ready to check out my 5 Tips to Perfect Yellow Butter Cake.


1. Choose the Right Mixer

MY KITCHEN AID MIXER is one of my Perfect Yellow Butter Cake-5 Tips

If you want to bake a delicious yellow butter cake, then you should use a stand mixer. A hand mixer won’t work because it doesn’t mix the ingredients well enough. You also shouldn’t use a blender or food processor because they won’t get the batter mixed properly.


2. Preheat the Oven

Preheated Oven for Baking one of my Perfect Yellow Butter Cake-5 Tips

If you want to get the most from this recipe, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before starting. You should also grease the pan well before pouring in the batter. Do this before you start mixing up the ingredients.

Once everything is ready, add the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and oil into a large bowl. Mix them together until they form a batter. Add the flour into the mixture and mix them together thoroughly.


3. Sift the Dry Ingredients

Sifting the Dry Ingredients is part of Perfect Yellow Butter Cake-5 Tips

If you want to get the most from this recipe, sifting the dry ingredients before adding them to the batter is essential. You’ll notice that the cake rises beautifully if you use a stand mixer instead of hand mixing.


4. Beat the Butter and Sugar Together

Beating the Butter and Sugar is part of my Perfect Yellow Butter Cake-5 Tips

If you want to make sure that your yellow butter cake turns out perfectly every time, then you should use room temperature butter and beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. You should also mix the dry ingredients together first before adding them to the batter.


5. Add the Eggs Separately

Add the Eggs Separately another one of my Perfect Yellow Butter Cake-5 Tips

If you want to get the most from this recipe, be sure to use room temperature eggs. You should also mix the dry ingredients separately before adding them to the wet ingredients. Finally, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Now that everything is all mixed together, pour the cake batter into your prepared cake pans. Place cakes in the 350-degree oven and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove cakes from the oven and cool on a cake rack completely before frosting. (About 60 minutes.)

How to Make a Cake in a Mug

Cake In A Mug

** This post also contains affiliate links, and I will be compensated if you purchase a product after clicking on a link at no extra cost to you. Thank you!


How to Make a Cake in a Mug is a lot easier to make than you think. In fact, you’ll wonder why you ever bought those boxed mixes that require six different bowls and a hand mixer.

Now you can make cake from scratch without all those annoying bowls!

So, I sprayed my mug with a non-stick cooking spray. I used the microwave for this cake, but it can be baked in an oven as well. The oven temperature for baking is 350 degrees F for about 12 minutes – that’s about three minutes per layer.

This cute little cake is perfect for that after-dinner treat, or it’s great for breakfast if you’re that kind of person. Either way, it’s super simple to make, and will take less than 5 minutes of active work on your part.

The wonderful thing about this recipe is that you don’t have to use just one mug or one type of mug. You can use different mugs in varied sizes for different portions. So, if you just want a little bite of cake, use a smaller mug. If you have company, use larger mugs.

To celebrate Fall, I know you will love the following recipe. This is so simple, so let’s get baking. Here’s what you’ll need:


Pumpkin Spice Latte Mug Cakes

Pumpkin Spice Latte Mug Cake

Ingredients:

2 Tablespoons butter, melted and cooled

1 Egg

3 Tablespoons brewed espresso coffee or extraordinarily strong coffee, room temperature

1 Tablespoon canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)

1/4 Cup sugar

1/3 Cup Original Bisquick™ Mix

1/2 Teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Pinch of salt

Whipped cream, for serving

Ground cinnamon, for serving


Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, beat melted butter, egg, espresso, and pumpkin with whisk. Add the sugar, Bisquick mix, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Mix until incorporated; batter may be lumpy.
  2. Divide batter between 2 microwavable mugs. Microwave uncovered on High 2 minutes. Cool a few minutes before serving.
  3. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Tips from Nana’s Kitchen

TIP #1: If you want to save on cleaning, mix up the batter in one mug, and then pour half of it into the other mug.

TIP #2: If you are not a fan of coffee, you can use other liquids such as water, buttermilk, Chi Tea, milk, etc.


Try this easy recipe for Homemade Cool Whip Only 2 ingredients:

Homemad Cool Whip

Your taste buds will thank you! This is way better than the canned stuff and a lot tastier than what comes in the plastic bowls.

Ingredients:

3/4 Cup heavy whipping cream (Very Cold)

2 Tablespoons powdered sugar


Directions:

  1. In a chilled medium bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed.
  2. Add powdered sugar before stiff peaks form.
  3. Beat ingredients until stiff peaks form.

Tips from Nana’s Kitchen

TIP #1: For enhanced flavor, try adding a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract when adding powdered sugar.

TIP #2: Make sure you keep your mixing bowl and your beaters in the freezer until you are ready to use them for the best results. And you want your heavy whipping cream very cold too.

TIP #3: This homemade cool whip is great on Pumpkin Pie, Sweet Potato Pie, Strawberry Short Cake or whatever you want to put it on. Enjoy! 🧁


Conclusion of “How to Make a Cake in a Mug

COFFEE

I hope you enjoyed How to Make a Cake in a Mug. It’s simple to make if you just want a little something sweet to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Let me know what you think when you fix one. Enjoy!
