Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.

Step 2

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients then add the wet ingredients. Whisk everything together until combined and no lumps remain.

Step 3

Pour batter into a microwave-safe mug. Mine was a 14-ounce mug. You want enough head space for the cake to rise without pouring over.

Step 4

Place a paper towel into the microwave and set the mug on top (this is to catch any batter if your mug cake overflows).

Step 5

Microwave mug cake for 1 minute and 50 seconds on high (PLEASE READ NOTES CAREFULLY BELOW)

Step 6

Carefully remove from microwave, drizzle your homemade salted caramel sauce (or you can use a store-bought caramel sauce) on top and enjoy!
