Nutella Mug Cake

I made this two days ago and then again today. The recipe is easy and it turned out  to be very good, with the exception of the cup size. The first time I did it, I used a regular coffee mug (similar to the one shown) and sure enough it overflowed the cup. The second time, I used a bigger  mug and again it overflowed into the microwave.
I only micro-waved it for 2.5 minutes. Also, it is very rich and I ended up sharing mine with my son and husband so for me it was 3 servings.

Another yummy idea, is to add it to some vanilla ice cream for al a mode.
Thanks for the recipe Babble.com!

Parmesan Meatloaf (Gluten Free)

I love meatloaf. Anything I don't have to cook ahead of time and I can just mix in a bowl and put into the oven is my kind of dinner. This meatloaf was super easy and tasted amazing.
Here is what the picture from the website looked like :

Mine didn't look exactly the same:

But it worked out just fine. The only changes I made was that I used seasoned bread crumbs instead of gluten free, I didn't make my own marinara sauce and I didn't garnish with parsley.

A big change I would make next time would be to heat up a bowl of marinara sauce and pour more on the meatloaf when it was on my plate. This recipe will defiantly be added into the regular meal rotation.

Pick-A-Boo Cake

How Incredibly cute! A cake with a hidden surprise, and in any shape that you can cut out! Incredible possibilities to suit any theme. Christmas trees, little bunnies, hearts, or even Mickey Mouse.
And Mickey Mouse is just what I chose to go alone with my sons birthday party!
If you decide that you are going to have a go at this cake, I would suggest that you do a trial run before your special event because my cake was a PINTASTRAPHY!!
Within 2 minutes of putting my final cake into the oven, the uncooked cake mixture sunk around my cut out Mickey Mouse silo-wet. Soon I had green Mickey ears sticking out of the top of a cake that soon became very oddly shaped. I was very disappointed. Luckily for me a lot of icing can cover many things but it really wasn't even close to the results I was hoping for.
To be honest I would probably try this one again but this time with a much smaller and less delicate shape, as I also managed to break one of the ears with the weight of the cake batter I was poring.
So if you would like to attempt to add a surprise to the inside of your next cake, here is a link to the original Pin and I wish you good luck!
Here is a picture of my not so spectacular results.
