You can never have just one chocolate chip cookie. But if your chocolate chip cookie batch yields just one serving, then you’ve found yourself a life hack. This mug recipe fits that bill. It provides instructions and ingredients on how to quickly and easily bake a chocolate chip cookie in a mug.

This seasonal favorite is the perfect handheld treat for fall but it’s delicious all year round. Be sure to top your mug apple crumble with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate experience.

Who can resist a gooey, chocolate brownie? Believe it or not, but spooning a brownie out of the ergonomic receptacle known as the mug only heightens the typical brownie-eating experience.

This mug cake recipe is like the mug brownie but with a surprise inside. The Oreo mug cake really shows off how multi-talented Oreo cookies are. Yes they’re great on their own, but they also shine when they’re baked into your mug cake.
