Instant Coffee Chocolate Mug Cake with Dalgona Whipped Topping Lauren Unzen Active Time: 6 minutes Total Time: 7 minutes Servings: 1

This mug cake is great for when you only want a small amount of cake. It’s also great for when you need a break from homework and studying. This mug cake gives you your chocolate fix with a little kick of coffee. I wanted to make a mug cake because in my apartment mug cakes have become a staple with late night studying. What really sets this mug cake apart from other mug cakes is that it has a nice hit of coffee without being overwhelming, while also only using kitchen staple ingredients so you can always make this mug cake, day or night.
