I am seriously neglecting this blog.
Even though I love my job as a teacher, I am looking forward to the summer holidays (only 3 weeks away y’all!)
Thankfully Canada has a long weekend this week, so I have until Monday to catch up on my marking.
But guess what I have made twice this week already?
You guessed it. The mug cakes are BACK BABY!
The first time I made this, I put the caramels in right before I microwaved it, but the caramels just sank to the bottom. Which is great if you want to eat a caramel soup at the bottom of your mug, but I wasn’t really into it. I wanted the caramel as I was eating the cake. So I changed it up and added it mid-microwave session.
But whatever your preference, this mug cake is a perfect treat to pair with marking. Or with breakfast. Just saying…

Wow Cathleen, another delicious mug cake…like the caramel in this cake…

You are the mug cake queen! You do such a wonderful job with them, and this one is no exception. Really creative — thanks so much.
Your mug cakes sound really amazing. I love that you add the caramels at the halfway point so you can taste their flavour throughout. Hope you enjoyed the long weekend – wasn't the weather perfect?
I'm pretty sure this is my favorite mug cake of yours yet!!
Ohlala!! Tempting like crazy. Btw, am following you on blogger. Appreciate the same. TQ.

You're killing me! I love a chocolatey gooey cake, and now you've added caramel to the mix too!
This looks so amazingly yummy! I am sure you are looking forward to summer off – hope you enjoy it!
Mug cakes are so quick and easy when you crave something sweet without all the fuss. I would be a mid-way caramel microwaver too 🙂
Cute and damn delicious looking sweet bites!!!
