What is a Mug Cake?

A mug cake is just like name suggests. It's a cake that's inside of a mug. However, unlike traditional cakes, mug cakes are only one serving in size. They are made by stuffing all the ingredients into a mug and microwaving it for no more than a few minutes.

Mug cakes are beloved for how easy and quick they are to make. Over the past decade, mug cakes have grown in popularity because many people simply don't have the time or space to bake an actual cake. It doesn't matter what time it is, you can make a delicious mug cake in less than five minutes.
