2 Mug Dessert Recipes Perfect for Late-Night Cravings

If you're anything like me, you often find yourself halfway through homework, too lazy to bake something, but wanting dessert anyway. So I've come up with two mug desserts so easy, you don't even need an oven—just grab a mug and you're set.

This first cake is beyond simple. It is egg-free so there's no real worry about baking and it takes 70 seconds to make so there's barely any waiting around time. This combination of Nutella and chocolatey goodness is the ultimate dessert for cake lovers.
