(Also note - Mug cakes can be baked in an oven if preferred on moderate temp for 15-20 minutes in ovenproof mug or ramekin).
Ingredients
1 pack Vanilla “Hug in a Mug” Mix 2 tblsp butter (or coconut oil/ghee) 2 large eggs, beaten (70g, room temperature) 2 tsp cinnamon 1 tblsp natvia (or similar granulated sugar-free sweetener) Cream cheese icing 30g cream cheese 1 tsp natvia (or similar granulated sugar-free sweetener) (extra cinnamon for decoration on top)
Method
1. Place 1 tblsp butter (or coconut oil/ghee) in each standard size mug and melt in microwave 30-60 seconds. 2. Pour half pack of mug cake mix into each mug then add one egg into each mug (half a pack is approx. 40g or ¼ cup mix). 3. Stir really well to combine wet and dry ingredients. 4. In a separate small cup or bowl, mix together cinnamon and natvia. 5. Spread approx. ¾ of cinnamon/natvia mix evenly over top of each mug cake then use a skewer to swirl the spices through the mix until partially combined. Pour remaining ¼ of cinnamon mix on top of cakes. 6. Microwave one mug at a time for 90 seconds. Let each cake rest for a few minutes then turn onto plate, cakes will be hot. Invert cakes so top is back on top. 7. Let cool for 5-10 minutes then top with cream cheese icing and extra cinnamon. 8. Cream cheese icing – place cream cheese and natvia in small cup or bowl and microwave for 10-20 seconds until softened. Stir together well.
