Orange Mug cake

 
This is one fluffy, quick treat that can be prepared in a microwave in no time. The orange blossom water in my refrigerator gave the idea for this flavorful sweet treat when I was looking for ideas other than a chocolate based mug cake. The orange blossom water lends a very pleasing flavor  to this mug cake that is hard to miss.

Ingredients:
1/4 cup all purpose flour
3 tbsp. powdered sugar
1/4 tsp. baking powder
2 tbsp. oil
3 tbsp. orange juice (I used unsweetened juice.)
1/2 tsp. orange blossom water
Few drops of orange food color (optional)
Slivered almonds to garnish (optional)

Method:
* Combine all ingredients in a mug (1 cup capacity) without any lumps.
* Microwave on high for 1½ to 2 minutes or until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean.
