Method

• Take the sugar in a large 350 ml mug.
• Add melted butter to the mug and whip it with a fork for 2-3 minutes until the mixture turns creamy.
• Add the egg to this mixture, and whip for another 2-3 minutes until it has completely blended and foamy.
• Add the vanilla, and the grated carrots and mix further for another 30 seconds.
• Now add the baking powder, flour, and chai masala powder into the mug and gently fold-in with the liquid mixtures. Don’t stir or whip.
• Transfer to the MR Microwave Oven and cook on P80 for 2 minutes.
• After the microwave beeps, remove the mug and use the skewer test to check if the cake is cooked through.
