Have you ever been hit with a dessert craving while watching a show and wearing pajamas but having absolutely zero energy to bake a full cake? Well, same here and that’s exactly how this Mug Coconut Cake came to life because it was born from a mix of desperation and a microwave, which turned out to be a beautiful combo.

I remember the first time I tried making it when I thought I had coconut milk but I didn’t so I ended up using almond milk and just hoped for the best yet it still turned out amazing so honestly, it feels like magic because a handful of ingredients and 90 seconds can create something this good.

Anyway, this dessert is soft and fluffy while being just the right amount of sweet. It’s the kind of dessert that makes you stop and think, “Wait, did I really make that” and spoiler alert: yes, you did and you did it in a mug so that makes you a legend.
