9 Mug Desserts to Whip Up in A Hurry

Do you crave a sweet treat before bedtime, but don’t want to tempt yourself with a whole batch of cookies or an entire pan of brownies? We have a simple solution for you. Mug desserts! You can whip together one serving of your favorite cake, cookie or brownie in just a few minutes!

Not only can mug desserts save you from having a whole cake to eat, you can also save precious time and have way less mess to clean up. All of our favorite mug desserts only require one to two minutes in the microwave, and can be made with just your favorite mug and a spoon for mixing. Plus, they all have seven ingredients or less.

To make the recipes below, simply mix all of the ingredients together and microwave. If you don’t like your dessert gooey, microwave for another 30 seconds. Don’t fill your mug more than two-thirds of the way, otherwise it will bubble over. The toppings are optional.

Who doesn’t love a classic chocolate chip cookie? While making a whole batch means you have a tray of cookies to snack on, sometimes you just want one and you want it now. Georgia at The Comfort of Cooking inspired us with her one-minute cookie recipe.

  1. Microwave butter in a mug until melted. This should take between 30 seconds and one minute.
  2. Mix together the sugar, vanilla and salt in the mug.
  3. Stir in the egg yolk and flour. Then mix in the chocolate chips.
  4. Microwave until fully cooked. This should take between 40 and 50 seconds.
