Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe mug, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Mix well with a fork until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

  2. Add the molasses, vegetable oil, and milk to the dry ingredients in the mug. Stir until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain, making sure to scrape the bottom of the mug to incorporate all the ingredients.

  3. Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the cake has risen and is set in the middle. Keep an eye on it to prevent overflow.

  4. Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot) and let the cake cool for a minute before topping with whipped cream, if desired. The cake will continue to cook slightly in the mug as it cools.

  5. Grab a spoon and dig into this delicious Gingerbread Mug Cake while it's warm for the ultimate cozy treat.
