Funfetti Mug Cake for One

Funfetti Mug Cake for One | Club Crafted

Funfetti Mug Cake for One | Club CraftedOne of my favorite treats to make myself when I first moved out of my parents’ house was microwave cookies. Yup, they are exactly what they sound like…but sometimes I would just eat plain ol’ Nestle chocolate chip cookie dough. #noshame

If only I had known how to make mug cakes back then, ha! My mom bought me a book about mug cakes for Christmas a few years ago and I’ve tried a few recipes, but surprisingly, this funfetti mug cake wasn’t included and I think it deserves to be shared! I’ve seen many recipes for mug cakes, and all of the cakes featured in the book I own call for one egg and the batter is split between two mugs. Well, this deliciously fluffy and colorful cake has zero eggs and the measurements are perfect for one, but feel free to double it if you’re willing to share! 

Funfetti Mug Cake for One | Club Crafted Funfetti Mug Cake for One | Club CraftedTo make this funfetti mug cake recipe even better, I’m also sharing how to make a small batch of frosting for your mug cake. Again, perfect for a serving of one! The first time I tested out this recipe, I ate the whole thing. Andrew only got a bite. The second time I sort of shared…sort of. 

Scroll down for the full recipe for this funfetti mug cake AND single-serve frosting! ??

Funfetti Mug Cake for One | Club Crafted Funfetti Mug Cake for One | Club CraftedWho knew you could make such a convincing cake in a MUG?! Really though, it fluffs up like a cake and tastes like a cake. Therefore, it’s totally a cake. It’s magic. It also doesn’t make a lot of extra dishes, so that’s a win in my book.

Use your favorite variety of rainbow sprinkles, add food coloring, or do whatever you’d like to make your individual cake delicious. Because I’m avoiding my oven until September (UGH THIS HEAT), the mug cake recipe satisfied my cake cravings perfectly. Did I mention it’s perfect for those of you living in dorms because you can just bake a little cake in your microwave?! Easy bake ovens got nothin’ on this recipe! 

Is is dangerous to be able to bake a cake in less than 5 minutes? Maybe. Whatever. 

Get out there and treat yourself!

  2. 3 tbsp powdered sugar
  3. 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  4. Food coloring, optional
For the mug cake
  1. Melt the butter in a large mug for about 30-45 seconds. Let cool for several minutes.
  2. Whisk or stir in sugar and vanilla
  3. Mix in flour, baking powder and salt until combined
  4. Add milk, mixing well until the batter is smooth. Stir in rainbow sprinkles
  5. Microwave the mug for 1 minute, check if the cake has risen and microwave for another 15-30 seconds until the top is springy and not sticky
  6. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before eating or topping with frosting
For the single-serve frosting

  2. Add vanilla (and desired food colorings) and mix until no jumps remain
  3. Drop frosting on top of a cooled mug cake with extra sprinkles
Notes
  1. Photo features the recipe doubled in order to completely fill the mug. If you are doubling the recipe in a single mug, you will need to double the cook time as well.

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β

"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
