I know…you want one right now!! You only need 4 ingredients to make this. If you don’t know how to make a cake in a mug it is really quite easy and you can use any flavor you like. Of course we used chocolate here but we’ve used this same concept and made a strawberry cake in a mug too which my kids loved!

You just get a big bowl and mix 1 box of angel food cake with 1 box of chocolate cake mix (in this case) and then use that mix as the base of your cake in a mug.

Once you have that mixed up and ready to use, follow these steps.
