Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or melted butter
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar 1 tablespoon granulated sugar mixed with 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Prepare Mug:
    Lightly grease a microwave-safe mug with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In the mug, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
  • Add Wet Ingredients:
    Pour in the milk, vegetable oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
  • Top with Cinnamon Sugar:
    Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the top of the batter in the mug.
  • Microwave:
    Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the cake has risen and is set in the middle. Microwave cooking times may vary, so keep an eye on the cake to prevent overcooking.
  • Cool and Enjoy:
    Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot!) and let the cake cool for a minute or two. Enjoy your warm and delicious Snickerdoodle Mug Cake straight from the mug or transfer it to a plate. Optionally, you can top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
