So it’s the start of the festive season in this house – lots of asking Alexa to play Christmas songs, silly dancing and eating nice food. We are having a family afternoon, playing games and sitting round the fire. I feel like I am re-enacting a Victorian Christmas scene!
Mug cakes are such a quick, fun and easy thing for children to do. No measuring using scales, just spoons. And instant results.
It’s surprising how amazing these taste. If you eat it hot they are even more stunning. I could imagine coming in after a few drinks and whipping up one of these beauties!
I had to scoop it out of the mug as this was far too much for one child and they both didn’t want to share due to cross contamination – apparently Poppy is gross according to her brother! Merry Christmas!!!!!!
