Microwave Milk Cake

Milk cake is a sweet delicacy. Despite having posted this recipe before, I decided to do this recipe again, because it was just too good! it’s nice to have quick and easy recipes that taste delicious. I make this version of milk cake in the microwave instead. How much easier can it get? It only requires 4 ingredients, one microwave-safe pan and makes absolutely no mess! It took me about 10 minutes tops. This recipe is a must-try and the perfect dessert for the holidays!
This recipe will serve 8.

Eight pieces of microwave milk cake garnished with chopped pistachios, served on a white plate.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese use whole milk ricotta
  • 1 cup milk powder
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ tsp cardamom powder
  • 1 Tbsp butter

Instructions

  • I am using 5x7 Pyrex pan.
  • Grease the Pyrex pan with butter and mix all the ingredients. Clean the sides and cook for 3 minutes in microwave.
  • Stir it and cook again for 2 minutes. Stir it and cook again for another 2 minutes. If cake is soft cook again for 1 more minute without stirring. It took me 8 minutes to make it. Let it cool of and cut into squares and enjoy.

    I made this recipe today and absolutely love it ? I have been looking for a recipe to use my storage powdered milk that will make it palatable to me. I couldn’t taste the powdered milk at all in this cake, it was delicious, and my kids loved it too! Thank you Manjulaji for sharing this easy delicious recipe?

      Rajesh, I am sure you can bake it but I have never done it to give you the exact time and temperature. Maybe try 300 degrees for 15 minutes and check a few times, just try
