We are a nation of tea and coffee drinkers and besides frequent trips to the kitchen to put the kettle on (which also counts as part of our daily exercise routine I am told!), we also do a lot of mug lifting (same principle applies here too).
But what if we told you that besides mug lifts and tea/coffee drinking your prized collection of mugs could also double as the perfect mould for a mini cake? Yes! It is true, mug cakes are a thing and we want to tell you all about them today. We’ve done the hard work for you and looked up some of the yummiest and easiest recipes, leaving you the honour of diving right into enjoying a delicious treat!
