Why You’ll Love This Recipe

  • It’s super easy: You just need 2 minutes to prepare to collect and mix the ingredients and 2 to 3 minutes to bake the mug cake. Yes, it’s that easy and super quick!
  • It’s EGGLESS: I haven’t used eggs for the recipe, only baking powder as a rising agent. And since it’s eggless, you don’t need to bake it too long, making it even more convenient.
  • No mess, time saver recipe: You won’t have any bowls or spatula to clean after the recipe; you just need a mug and spoon to mix everything. What else do we bakers wish for :D?

Important Ingredients In Vanilla Mug Cake

  • Baking powder: Since the recipe doesn’t use eggs, baking powder is the sole ingredient giving rise to the cake. Without it, the vanilla mug cake would be a rubbery thing. So, make sure your baking powder is still fresh!
  • Oil: I have used refined vegetable oil for the recipe, as it has no significant smell or flavor. It’s also helping in achieving a soft texture in the recipe. I wouldn’t recommend replacing oil with butter, as it will hamper the texture.
  • Salt: Since I have used oil in the recipe, salt is a must, or the cake would just be bland.

How To Make Vanilla Mug Cake

  • Mix all the ingredients: Add all the ingredients, i.e., all-purpose flour, castor sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, oil, and vanilla essence, to a mug and mix everything well to make a smooth batter.
  • Bake: Put it for baking in the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes, then let it cool down to room temperature.
  • Garnish & Serve: Once the cake has cooled, garnish it with your favorite toppings and fruits. I have used vanilla ice cream and fresh fruits like mango, blueberries, and kiwi for a refreshing treat.

Chef Tips For The Recipe

Choose the correct mug size & material.

The cake will rise while baking, so make sure you are using a big mug so it doesn’t overflow. It should be microwave safe, and make sure it has no metallic parts.

Quick tip for microwaving.

Don’t over-microwave! An over-microwaved mug cake would be more like a rubber. So, make sure to bake for a few seconds after the mentioned time, if required.

Quick tip for baking.

If you are not a big fan of microwaved cake, you can also bake it in an OTG at 180°C; make sure that the mug you use for baking can withstand the required temperature.

How To Store Vanilla Mug Cake

I wouldn’t recommend storing the vanilla mug cake, as it tastes best when consumed fresh.

“I achieved 10% of my short-term manifestation before my target date”
Before this program I knew a little about manifestations, but as I discovered during the program, I had a lot of limiting beliefs that kept me from fully embracing and accepting myself as a manifestor.
During this program I became more aware of what manifestation is and how powerful I am. I become more aware of my guides, of my highest self and that I can pull the best of my highest self into my present. Since this program I no longer wrestle with trying to convince myself that what I desire will happen. I know that it has happened, it is done and it is mine, here and now. I achieved 10% of my short-term manifestation before my target date, my eyesight has improved and I no longer need glasses for distance vision, only for reading, I gave myself a make-over as part of my commitment to my renewal and I began to de-clutter my space.

“My professional and personal life has seen significant positive changes”
Joining “The Art of Manifesting” was a life-changing decision for me. This is now the third time going through the quest and focusing on different areas of manifestation.
Regan is a powerful guide and she walks the talk.
This 28-day journey was a blend of practical techniques and profound energetical activations. I learned to visualize my goals clearly, expand my possibilities, and overcome the limitations holding me back from living a life i desire. The quest’s unique approach to identity hacking helped me align my inner self with my aspirations, making the manifestation process more effective and authentic.
The biggest takeaway for me was the acceleration of manifestation by bending time and tapping into the highest frequencies. The techniques taught in the quest enabled me to see results much faster than I expected. My professional and personal life has seen significant positive changes, and goals that once seemed unattainable are now within reach.
I’m beyond grateful for the wisdom and tools I’ve gained from this quest and Regan. It’s not just about manifesting; it’s about transforming your entire lifestyle. I highly recommend “The Art of Manifesting” to anyone looking to turn their dreams into reality.

“This course and listening to Regan’s podcasts gave me the tools to acknowledge my blocks and mindsets around drinking”
I have so enjoyed this journey with Regan, I am a new person as a result of this quest. I now have new beliefs & mindsets that I keep working on daily, hourly. A kinder and more compassionate version of me has emerged over this journey, and I love her!
This quest has resulted in me finding the lost me, the me that has been hidden under the voices of doubt, fear or just lack of awareness that I get to run my life not the other voices in my head or family and people around me. When we wire ourselves to the future version of us, then we make different choices and we are already a different person!
Thank you Regan, thank you Mindvalley, thank you tribe!!!! ❤❤, I love you all and wish you a magical Christmas and hope our paths may cross one day at Mindvalley events.

“My family’s net income unexpectedly increased while I was taking the quest”
Before taking this Quest I believed that the prerequisites of success were hard work, long hours, timing and a degree of luck; “1% inspiration and 99% perspiration” was my mantra. Trying to achieve success with this mindset was exhausting, frustrating and unsustainable.

 

I then discovered The Art of Manifesting … and was blown away.

 

The foundational teaching of focusing on your inner world to achieve has been transformative in the way I live my life. I now know that cultivating the feeling of already being in possession of that which you want, accelerates the manifestation of what you desire.

 

My family’s net income unexpectedly increased while I was taking the quest, and have discovered a path to manifest greater abundance in the year to come. But perhaps the biggest shift I experienced during this quest now knowing that I am worthy and deserving of abundance. Regan, I am eternally grateful to you, thank you :-)

“Now, my manifestation is showing up right before my eyes in ways I hadn’t even considered”
Before this program, I believed somewhat in manifestation but never knew how to do it, or if it was real, and the little bit I did know ended up being completely wrong! This Quest has not only taught me how to manifest and put me on the path to doing it the right way, but I was actually able to manifest what I had set at the beginning.
I never thought it would actually come true, but I committed myself to the process and gave it 100% every day. And now, my manifestation is showing up right before my eyes in ways I hadn’t even considered. It’s truly blowing my mind.
I had a financial goal for the end of the Quest, and different opportunities for selling my artwork started coming up, and the deals are coming out almost to the exact number I had set.
Not only that, but I have truly transformed into a better version of myself in these short weeks, more than I had in the last few years, that my spouse has even noticed.
I’m so excited for what’s to come next and so grateful for this program. Thank you.

“I have written a 50,000-word book, that is now in design”
I joined Mindvalley on New Year’s 2023. I am excited to share how life has significantly changed in the first 90 days of the year. Beginning with the Silva Method, I envisioned and transformed a dysfunctional personal relationship, into a loving, caring separation, allowing me the peace and serenity to follow my path, and my partner to choose his. In February while on the Art of Manifesting Quest I listed my intent to have a book written by May 2023, and have a speaking engagement booked by December 2023.
I have written a 50,000-word book, that is now in design, and a journal for Women seeking a deeper connection with themselves, also in design. Both will be uploaded via KDP Amazon self-publishing by May 1st.
I have booked a speaking engagement for May with the intent of having published books with me for sale.
Most importantly – this morning I changed my profile from ‘Document writer’ to ‘Author.’
Gratitude abounds!!!
