Notes
- You’ll want to use a taller mug versus a short ramekin for the mug cake. If you use a short ramekin, the batter will swell up and over the sides (said from experience). The cake will rise up regardless and settle once it’s out of the microwave though.
- If you LOVE pumpkin pie spice, add a dash more.
- Add the wet ingredients to the mug first as it makes it easier to mix in the dry ones without leaving half of the flour on the bottom of the mug.
- Let it cool for 20 seconds out of the microwave. Not only so that you don’t burn your tongue but because this is the time in which the cake settles and ever so slightly thickens.
- When in doubt, it’s always better to underbake it slightly.
