A family friend a couple of years ago shared an original, quick and easy cake recipe called made in a mug in the microwave. We haven’t asked for permission to share the actual recipe but we thought we’d at least share a photo of it. The children really like it because they can all make their own treat without using the microwave oven. Yes we do try to limit our use of the microwave, but this recipe is a keeper because not only did a friend create it, it’s safe for the children to make on their own.
