FAQs

How to tell when the cake is done?

You will know that your cake is done when the cake has risen in the mug. There will also be no visible signs of raw cake.

Do I need to spray oil in the mug?

There is no need to spray the coffee mug before combining ingredients. Since you eat the cake straight from the mug it is easy to serve.

Then when you are ready to clean, I like to sit in the sink with water. This helps to loosen the cake crumbs to easily clean the mug.

Serving Ideas

  • Ice Cream – It is delicious with a scoop of No Churn Vanilla Ice Cream. However, you can add a scoop of ice cream in any flavor.
  • Powdered Sugar – Powdered sugar is another good topping to try.
  • Hot Fudget – Drizzle hot fudge on top of the mug cake for added flavor.
  • Top with berries – Top the mug cake with strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries with whipped cream.
  • Extra Nutella – When serving drizzle extra nutella on the top for delicious flavor.
