  • Mug Size: Make sure that the mug you choose is large enough to hold the cake when it eventually rises in the microwave, or you could be cleaning a mess up. Also be sure to check that the mug is microwave safe.
  • Make It Molten: You can make any mug cake a molten mug cake by simply putting a spoon full of chocolate chips, peanut butter or Nutella in the middle of the batter. Don’t worry about stirring it in or pushing it down.
