This strawberry shortcake recipe is the perfect size for just one person. If you don't usually have a sweet tooth, but are craving a light dessert, this adorable single serving will do it. It's also seasonally appropriate with fresh strawberries in the summer time.
The best part is, the mini strawberry shortcake recipe from Refinery29's Jackie Alpers and Elettra Wiedemann is made in a mug in three minutes or less. To make a homemade mug strawberry shortcake, you'll need cold butter, self-rising flour, sugar, heavy cream, salt, strawberries and whipped cream. You also don't need any impressive culinary skills -- just a microwave, fork, spoon and a toothpick. They used a microwave-safe glass.
