I love mug cakes. It’s probably because I live with a man who would rather have a second steak than a good dessert. Thus, I rarely make dessert. Sometimes, however, it’s nice to have a little something in the evening – and when it takes less than 5 minutes to prepare and less than 2 minutes to bake, as is the case with the typical mug cake, there’s no excuse!
Tonight I came across a delightful site that has featured 10 different mug cakes, and I chose the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Mug Cake. Mmmm.
It was, indeed, quick and easy to prepare. I added a dollop of vanilla ice cream and a wee bit of fudge sauce and within 5 minutes of getting up to make my dessert, I was sitting down ready to enjoy.
The result – for the amount of time it takes to put it together, it’s super tasty. It certainly tastes like freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, but it has a funny texture. Also, it makes a pretty large serving and I left the last 1/4 in the mug, sadly uneaten. I’d for sure make it again, but I’m also very excited to try the other 9 creations!
