And here's one more wonderful fairy recipe that's included in the cookbook:
 
 
SMOKE MAKES A BIRTHDAY CAKE
(CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE)
 
Smoke, the Black Patrol Sheriff is a bit miffed. At six inches tall, he's the biggest of the fairies. So he's been press-ganged into making a Toddle Wing's birthday cake, since he's big enough to add the ingredients to a large mug, stir with a whisk and with the help of the rest of the Patrol, place the mug in the microwave. But he's a Sheriff, not a chef, grumble, grumble. Or at least he complained until he saw the three-year-old Toddle Wing's face light up at the delicious results.

MUG CHOCOLATE CAKE
Ingredients:
4 tablespoons flour (unbleached works well, self rising too)
4 tablespoons white granulated sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons milk or soy milk
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Combine all ingredients in a large coffee mug. Whisk well with a fork or whisk until smooth and make sure well mixed. Microwave on high for 1 1/2 – 3 minutes. Cake mix will puff up and then settle. (Time depends on microwave wattage and shape/size of mug. Experiment.) Makes 1 very large serving, or two little snacks. Or enough for a large fairy birthday party.

Variations:
Add ¼ teaspoon salt and drop 2 salted caramels into mix for a salted caramel chocolate mug cake.
Add 3 tablespoons Nutella or peanut butter.
Add 2-3 drops of orange extract for a orange chocolate mug cake.
For "frosting" add 1 to 3 tablespoons of chocolate chips to mug. These will sink to the bottom of the mug and then flip the mug upside down on a plate and you have a mug cake with frosting!
