Mug Cakes

[smlewis00]

Are any of you familiar with the term "mug cake?" I have read many different articles online that have recipes saying you can make cakes in a mug in the microwave. These are suppose to be individual cakes that you can bake using only the microwave. I had never heard of this before! I also have never tried it. I found this recipe that is super quick and easy. http://www.duncanhines.com/recipes/cakes/patti40/3-2-1-microwave-cake/
I am going to try it out this weekend. I'll let you know my results! In the meantime, what do you know about mug cakes? Have you ever tried to make one?

I have tried mug cakes! My first time was a big BIG failure and I've made a pomegranate one that was lovely. I did mess it up one time after the first and had scrambled eggs. I do recommend doing those separate. You can mix everything in the cup, mix the egg separately, then mix it into the other stuff inside the mug.

I made them with my daughter and her cousin once, they were very easy and it was a lot of fun. The recipe that we used was angel food cake and a regular cake mix and a couple of teaspoons of water and we microwaved them. They were pretty good with fruit and whipped cream on them. It was a pretty fun activity for the kids.
