Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Like any cake, these mug cakes will rise and expand. Therefore, choose your mug wisely! Leave plenty of room for expansion, and only fill each mug roughly two-thirds full.
  • tip 2
    Not a fan of food dyes? Leave it out! Red food color makes these cakes a lovely shade, but in no way affects the flavor.
