I’ve got a confession – I’m obsessed with mug cakes.
My sweet tooth is currently out of control folks. Let’s blame it on the bad weather, the long days indoors and the countless evenings Mer and I spend binge-watching Netflix shall we? It seems that almost every night I find myself craving something sweet. Since I don’t like to bake large quantities of sweets all that often I’ve turned to experimenting with various types of mug cakes to satisfy my cravings. Confession two: I’ve tried almost all of the mug cakes listed below.
Guys, mug cakes are simply amazing. They are just enough to indulge that sweet tooth without going overboard. They are delicious, easy to make, reduce waste from uneaten leftovers and are super cost efficient without necessarily requiring a bunch of one-time use baking ingredients that’ll inflate your weekly grocery bill.
These mug cakes are a frugal persons dream come true when the craving for something on the sweet side sneaks up on your after dinner. These make putting together a quick individual dessert a breeze.
There’s all kinds of mug cakes listed below folks. Flavors range from chocolate to berries to nut butters and even macha powder. These mug cakes are guaranteed to satisfy just about every taste preference!

If you had to make one of these RIGHT now, which one would you choose?
My daughter is obsessed with mug cakes… she made me one the other day (Chocolate with butterscotch chips) and it was so delicious… I won’t lie- it isn’t exactly part of my healthy diet…but it is all I can think about! LOL
Ha! They are so fun, easy and delicious aren’t they?
I want ALL the mug cakes! Also, I kinda want all the mugs that go with them!
They’re super cute aren’t they? <3
Oh my goodness gracious, those look good! I’ve only tried one mug cake recipe, but I think I’ll be coming back to try out some of these.
Don’t they? They are AWESOME. *sigh* every last one
Oh my god I love you 😀 so full of yumminess!
Enjoy!
Oh my gosh, all of this look so yummy!
They are! I’ve nearly made them all! 🙂
I’ve never made a mug cake before. Perhaps I should start!!
You absolutely should! They are super easy to put together and are a delicious treat!
I have not had many mug cakes but this list sure is enticing. You have truly outdone yourself.
I am going to start with the S’mores! Perfect for this Nor’easter that’s supposed to hit us tomorrow (I’m close to NY as well).
I just heard!!! Stay safe!
