if I crave a piece of cake. Instead of making a whole “normal-sized” cake, and eating the whole thing… well, gradually.
I might consider making a mug cake instead. I mean, I’m already making mug oatmeal at work, so why not make a mug cake at home?

Perfect for those days when you don’t have the time to cook for ages, but still want something home-made.
