SAVE THE RECIPE

Well ladies and gents, you guessed it, I made lava cake that much easier to make.

To start off, {if you haven’t already} you’ll need to make that magical cake mix. Super, super, super simple…just two ingredients…

Grab your mug.

Grab two mugs…you’ll want seconds…

Add 3 tablespoons of the mix, then 2 tablespoons of water…

Then, we’ll add the magic.

Chocolate pudding snacks.

Funny story… One time I sent my husband to the grocery store to grab some groceries for me. He came back with 40 pudding snacks.

Yes, 40!

You see, they were “on sale” for 10 packs for $10. He, bless his heart, assumed you must buy all 10, to get the incredible deal. He is what ad marketers dream of. Needless to say, I had pudding snacks for days and put them to good use with this easy recipe!

I just used a regular chocolate pudding snack, but I have made this with a sugar-free pudding snack, and it’s just as awesome!

Just drop in half of the pudding snack. But don’t stir it!

Toss it in the microwave for just 1 minute…

Pull it out… careful… it’s hot! You can enjoy it straight out of the mug! A scoop of vanilla ice cream on top is always a welcome addition!

Here are some more Mug Cake flavor varieties you can try:

• Butterscotch pudding with chocolate cake mix
• Vanilla pudding with white cake mix
• Lemon pudding with lemon cake mix
• Vanilla pudding with funfetti cake mix

Heaven. In. A. Mug.

You’re going to really love this one!
