Viral one-minute mug cake dubbed 'perfect' lockdown dessert
Popular Sydney-based baker Jonathan Massaad, founder of Cake Mail, has shared an amazingly easy three-ingredient dessert to help fellow NSW residents get through lockdown.
Sharing the recipe for his three-ingredient peanut butter mug cake on Instagram, Jonathan wrote: "Talk about the perfect recipe you needed during lockdown! This easy recipe will have you drooling for dayssss!"
In the video, the baker shows how easy it is to make the cake, telling viewers: "Three ingredient peanut butter mug cake - mix three tablespoons of peanut butter, one egg and one tablespoon of brown sugar. Put it in a mug, microwave on high it for one minute. Dig in and enjoy!"

Followers were quick to share their thoughts with one user commenting: "I want the cake so bad!"
Many others tagged their friends with another writing: "You would love this, soo easy too."
"This has your name all over it," a third wrote, tagging their friend.
One user also suggested adding choc chips, saying: "These make great cookies too... just add choc chips."
"Just made," wrote another fan. "Yum! Needs vanilla ice cream."
In another post, Jonathan turns a McFlurry into a cake by adding some self-raising flour to an Oreo McFlurry and putting it into the microwave for one minute.
"Oh! It's actually nice!" he said, seemingly surprised his creation worked.
His reaction, however, didn't have many people believing it was something they should try at home with one user writing: "I'm not convinced!"
"Or just enjoy the McFlurry as it is with a proper packet mug cake," another wrote.
In yet another hack, Jonathan puts a whole block of Cadbury's Dairy Milk in a pan of boiling water while it's still in its packet. Then, take it out, dry it off and cut a corner off to create a delicious chocolate piping bag that you could use as a topping on a desert.
Jonathan chose to use his chocolate on a marshmallow.
"Wow, mind blown," one user wrote, while another said, "Best one yet!"
