Christmas Mug Cakes

This Chocolate Peppermint Cake is Made for a Singular Sugar Craving

— December 22, 2014 — Lifestyle
This scrumptious chocolate peppermint mug cake recipe is the perfect holiday dessert to serve up at a party. Since the cake is made in a single portion size, you can make as many or as little as you want.

Mug cakes are essentially the concept of baking a single sized portion of cake in a mug. These are great for making customized cakes -- no matter how many guests you're serving. The delicious chocolate batter is infused with mint flavoring, poured into several mugs with enough room to rise, and baked for only two short minutes. Once they're done you can let them cool and decorate them however you please. Icing, whipped cream, sprinkles and crushed candy canes are several options.
