How to Serve One Minute Mug Cakes

Once your mug cakes are ready, take them out of the microwave and let them cool for a minute. You can enjoy them straight from the mug, or if you prefer, transfer them to a plate. Don’t forget to add a spoonful of creamy peanut butter on top for extra flavor!

How to Store One Minute Mug Cakes

These mug cakes are best enjoyed fresh. However, if you have leftovers (which is rare!), you can cover the mug with plastic wrap and store it in the fridge for a day. Just reheat it for about 15-30 seconds in the microwave before eating.

Tips to Make One Minute Mug Cakes

Use a larger mug to prevent overflow while cooking.
Experiment with flavors by adding chocolate chips, nuts, or spices.
Adjust cooking time according to your microwave; it may vary.

Variation

You can easily change the flavor of your mug cakes! Try using almond butter instead of peanut butter or substituting applesauce for the butter for a healthier option. The possibilities are endless!
