There are tons of recipes online and you will be sure to find a recipe that tickles your fancy. This is the epitome of minimal clean up dessert. Mug cakes are prepared, cooked and eaten all in the mug, so that means you will only have to clean up a mug, and one or two spoons. You will have your evening dessert organised at the drop of a hat.
