Notes
- To make this mug cake, do not use plastic mug. Always use ceramic mug or microwave-safe mug.
- You can top with your favorite toppings to make the cake more delightful.
- All microwaves are different so it’s difficult to tell a precise cook time. Start with 70 seconds, wait 1 minute while it cools, then look to see if it is set. Add an additional 15-25 seconds if needed. Allow it to rest for 1 minute in a microwave.
- It is best to served after you make it, but you can covered tightly and stored at room temperature for 1-2 days.
