More often than not, we’re hit by a serious craving for sweets at some point in the night and for those times when we don’t have anything readily available to devour, we turn to this 5-minute recipe. Mug cake.
While a lot of the ones we’ve tried have turned out kind of dense and dry, this one is different from all the rest: moist, buttery and absolutely delectable…if you haven’t tried it yet, please go do so now! You have all the ingredients in your pantry and you could be eating a steaming hot mug cake in the time it takes to make a cup of coffee!
We’re a lover of all cookies, but snickerdoodles are one of our favorite indulgences and the main inspiration for this mug cake. So, we chose our favorite mug – an homage to our slightly crazed furry friends (and which you can find here) – started mixing everything together and threw it all in the microwave! In under 5 minutes we were scarfing down a delicious snickerdoodle cake, so by our calculations, having nothing ready to eat worked out perfectly!!
