My husband has a sweet tooth so I have made this a lot for him! Just last week I showed him how to make it and he was blown away by how easy it was! The only down side is I have to limit him or he’d make like 10 a day, haha!

Cake in a cup or cupcake in a mug!! Whatever you want to call it , it’s simple to make, rich, full of chocolate and the best! You can’t not make it!! Enjoy!
