13 Easy Microwave Mug Cakes Week 13: S'more Mug Cake

Compliments of theKitchn
Recipe by Kirbie's Cravings

Hi Friends,

Welcome back and thank you for following us during our series on 13 Easy Microwave Mug Cakes. It's been fun and we've enjoyed sharing these great recipes with you and thank all our contributors; the mug cakes are truly delicious. In our last week of the series we would like to remind you of those great family camping trips or relaxing around the backyard fire pit with family and friends. We all have a "setting in front of the fire" memory, right?

This cake base is a fluffy graham cracker flavored cake, with melted molten chocolate in the center topped with a toasted marshmallow. You can directly melt a marshmallow on top in the microwave and let it get all gooey over your cake too, but to really get that toasted look, which is a reminder of roasted S’mores in front of the fire, a toasted marshmallow will do the trick and won't require too much time - the few extra minutes is well worth it...

Suggestion: If you like more graham cracker flavor, add a graham cracker crust at the bottom and top the surface with more marshmallows so that the melted marshmallows really mix with the cake; maybe throw on a bunch of mini marshmallows.

Now, lets make our S'more Mug Cake...

S'more Mug Cake

Ingredients

• 4 tbsp all purpose flour
• 2 tbsp finely crushed graham crackers
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 3 tbsp fat free milk
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 2-3 small squares of milk chocolate
• 1 large marshmallow

Optional: 6-7 mini marshmallows

Directions

• Combine flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, oil, milk and sugar in a large microwave safe mug. Mix with a small whisk until no flour chunks remain. Make a hole in the middle of the batter and stick in the chocolate squares. Cook in microwave for about 1 minute. Top of cake should look done and surface of cake should be dry rather than gooey.


• Either add mini marshmallows or one large marshmallow and place on top of cake and heat for about 20 seconds until marshmallows are puffy. Or you can also take large marshmallow and toast in toaster oven for a few seconds until surface is light brown. Suggestion: Best result would be to use mini marshmallows to melt on the cake in the microwave and then add a toasted large marshmallow for garnish.
