When you want something for dessert that’s more than a chocolate bar or ice cream, but still easy enough to make that you can eat it ASAP, mug cakes are your friends. Most of these take less than 2 minutes to make in a microwave. Yeah, that’s right.
Just because these desserts are made in a microwave, it doesn’t mean the cakes can’t be made from scratch and taste good. None of these mug cakes use a cake mix, and all of them go a little beyond your normal funfetti or chocolate pudding bomb kind of mug cake you normally see.
So whether you’re living in a dorm, or sending your kids off to one soon, you can be prepared for immediate dessert consumption whenever the overwhelming feeling strikes.

I’ve made these before and they are the best! So delicious and moist!
What if I don’t have cocoa powder at home to make the chocolate mug cakes?
I have tried using hot chocolate powder in replace of cocoa powder once. It still works! One thing to note though is that hot chocolate powder does have sugar in it already so make sure to cut down on the amount of sugar you put into it or else the cake will be too sweet! Unless you have a big sweet tooth! Haha.
Cake in minutes?? LIFE IS GOOD!
