This one turned up soooo good. Had only vegetable oil in hand and used it instead olive oil. Will try it again for sure.. My toddler is eating the cake right now - 11 Jan 2016
This was good , a bit much for one so I halved the recipe, so moist also added leftover coffee from plunger instead of milk made a mocha flavour - yum :-) - 02 Oct 2015
This is one of the better cakes in a mug. I must admit I did pour a little choc topping into the mix as well though. Some recipes tend to be a bit dry - 29 Sep 2014
