I dare you! Easiest Dessert Ever. Period.

-Set your Microwave to High and set the timer to 2 minutes. -The Cake is ready when you press the top part and it is firm to the touch. If not, you can add an extra minute but be checking so that it is not overdone. Once perfectly cooked, this is how the inside should turn out, moist yet crumbly and soft. Your Mug Cake is best eaten immediately. So you can serve plain or top with some Cream Cheese Frosting, Fruit, or Syrup
