Kitchen Witch Recipe: Vanilla Mug Cake

Who doesn't love a little cake? This is good for a quick, fairly simple individual serving that can be made in the microwave. And of course, I'm witch-ifying it with the correspondences. This is a good one for a self-love ritual, or for any workings to help comfort.

Ingredients

1/4 c all purpose flour

1/2 tsp cornstarch

1/2 tsp baking powder

2 tbsp salted butter (softens and relieves energies)

3 tbsp sugar (sweetens your disposition)

1 tsp vanilla extract (love and comfort)

3 tbsp milk

1/2 tsp sprinkles (optional!)

Directions

In a small bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and sugar. Whisk together to combine.

Add better to large mug and microwave until melted.

Stir sugar, vanilla, and milk into melted butter.

Add flour mixture to mug and stir to form a batter. If you're using sprinkles, gently stir them in.

Microwave 1-2 minutes. It should be puffy but still shiny. Let the cake rest 2-3 minutes. It will continue to coon through in this time.

If you want to add more magic to this, you can absolutely make a ritual out of it. Incorporate pink candles, rose quartz, roses, lavender, whatever makes you feel the most loved and comfortable. Invoke any deities (I always call on Aphrodite for this).

Self-Love Herbal Tea

This was a tea I intended to upload around valentine's day. I recommend making a big batch and drinking it every Friday (the day of Venus). I keep mine in a mason jar, dated and labeled.

Ingredients:

• Rose (for enhancing beauty, attraction, passion, sex, increase confidence, open your heart to healing)

• Lavender (for anxiety surrounding loving yourself, protecting the inner child, peace & harmony, attracts self-love)

• Jasmine (for bringing the affirmations to life, heighten attractiveness & seeing the beauty within yourself, luck with love)

• Damiana (for sexual passion, lust, attracting love, makes you aware of your emotions)

• A pinch of cinnamon (adding this boosts spellwork around love & lust, success around your goal, motivation to love yourself, deep inner healing, protection)

• Honey (to sweeten yourself, attraction, to make the intentions stick)

The herbs are in equal ratio - one part each. After boiling water in your kettle, drink intentionally for however many cups you desire. Stir in the cinnamon and honey, drawing a self-love sigil. I recommend creating your own. Speak positive self-love affirmations as you sip on this, aloud or in your head. I find this to be amplified. If there are parts of your body you find difficult loving, say affirmations that entice love for them and why.

*Please remember, as with any herbal tea, that if you have medical conditions to check with your doctor to make sure this doesn't interact with medications. There are herbs in this tea that you should not take while pregnant.
