15 minute sponge and custard fix

It’s cold and I need comfort food. Well hel-lo there 15-minute sponge pudding! You’re looking rather tempting…

A blob of sponge and custard could be in your bowl in less than half an hour (P.s thanks for the photo VBG)

 

I was delighted to stumble across this easy as anything recipe involving no-fuss, minimal ingredients and an appealing quarter of an hour turn-around which very much suits this evenings’ rather lazy but hungry (okay greedy) self.

Even a fool could cook this 

I doubled the recipe I found, which made enough for about four to five bowls.

Ingredients:

• 100g  butter
• 100g  brown sugar
• 100g self raising flour
• 2 medium eggs, beaten
• 4 tablespoons milk
• 4 tablespoons of jam or syrup ( I went for Bonne maman jam, can’t go wrong)
• Custard if you fancy

Method:

• Mix in the butter and the sugar
• Add your milk and eggs at the same time
• Add the flour
• Now you’re ready to cook!
• Put about two teaspoons of jam at the bottom of each bowl. Share out te  ixture between the four bowls (you’ll probably put about two tablespoons of mix per bowl)
• Put in the microwave. Cook on high power for 2 mins
• It’s ready already can you believe!
• Tip: It would be useful to have another pair of hands when making this to make sure the custard and sponge are ready at the same time.
