Product placement

Milo: ACTS — the creator uses it as the primary ingredient for a mug cake, demonstrating its ability to create a dessert result. Removing it would change the entire video. Procal: APPEARS — a bottle of milk is visible in the background throughout the video. Removing it would not change the video as it is just a generic ingredient. Smeg: APPEARS — the brand name is visible on the microwave. Removing it would not change the video as it is just the appliance used.

Milo + milk = a fudgy brownie?! So apparently if you microwave four tablespoons of Milo and one tablespoon of milk, you will get a cake, like a fudgy brownie. Coming together. It actually looks like a brownie batter. So now in the microwave for a 1:30 but you have to check it every 20s. It actually looks like a brownie. I'm in shock. That was only a minute, about a minute in the microwave. Let's taste it. Oh. Tastes just like a chocolate mug cake. Like that is insane. If you want something sweet, have just Milo and milk like, absolutely make this.
