Best Ever Chocolate Coffee Mug Cake
Mug cakes are my go-to cure for a sweet tooth, mostly when I'm short on time or ingredients. They're easy, quick, and involve a small number of ingredients and tools. There's no need to make a big cake you'll eat too much of over the next week.
For people who live alone, mug cakes are easy and avoid food waste. For a family, each person can make their own mug cake, try different flavors, and use different ingredients. They're incredibly versatile. Cakes, cookies, and brownies can all be made into mug cakes. I've made every kind of mug cake that I could dream up: snickerdoodle cookie mug cake, raspberry, and white chocolate mug cake, banana bread mug cake, and funfetti mug cake, but my favorite mug cakes always involve chocolate.
This recipe is for my all-time favorite mug cake because of the richness provided by the addition of coffee and dark chocolate chips.
