Whoever invented mug cakes was probably a college student looking for a way to have a couple bites of cake without having to make a whole cake. For the most part, college dorm rooms don’t have an oven and even if they did, a whole cake is a lot for one or two people.

Mug cakes are the perfect single-serving rich and delicious treats that are there for us when we’re staying in on a Saturday night or while we’re pulling an all-nighter to finish a paper that we forgot about. Instead of googling the best mug cakes, here’s a list compiling the yummiest mug cakes around.
