Gourmet cooking made easy "Mug Cake"

My friend Katherine bought my a very thoughtful gift for my anniversary.  Its called a "mug cake".

I used to think that to make something gourmet and scrumptious it had to be made from scratch. You know home made, nothing from a box. Hours slaving over a hot stove using every pot and pan I own in my little tiny kitchen. Until I tried "mug cake".

It was the kind of treat I was sceptical about, but on the day that I "cooked" it, I was so excited to find something so good and so easy to bake.

Its a cake literally baked in a mug. Take a coffee mug (lord only knows I have several of those), grease the inside, ad 1/4 c milk and stir in contents of Mug cake packet. Put in microwave for 1.5 minutes AND.....


Dessert is ready. No fuss, no frills, just good cake ready in less than 5 minutes. David loved it, I was thrilled and we each got our own cake.  Thanks Katherine you know me so well.
