Creating a Microwave Mug Cake has been on my recipe to do list for a while now. 

The other night I was craving something sweet big time and since we had lots of marshmallows leftover from my Fruit Fluff recipe I decided to make a S’mores Mug Cake. What the heck is a Mug Cake, you ask? It’s simply an individual dessert baked in a coffee mug in your microwave in about 5 minutes! You can double or triple to recipe to make a few and it is absolutely perfect for kids and adults with a sweet tooth like me! This recipe is decadent and rich, with dark chocolate cocoa, chocolate chips, marshmallows, graham crackers, and melted marshmallow fluff on top!

Is your mouth watering yet?!
