FAQS
Can I make this mug cake without a bear paw cookie?
Yes! Any soft cookie or brownie piece works — just crumble it into the batter.
What if I don’t have cocoa powder?
No worries! Skip it for a vanilla-style mug cake or add extra cookie chunks for flavor.
What size mug should I use?
A 12–14 oz microwave-safe mug works best. Smaller mugs may overflow.
Can I use water instead of milk?
Yes, but milk (dairy or non-dairy) makes the cake richer and more flavorful.
How do I prevent a rubbery texture?
Mix batter just until combined, and avoid overcooking. Start with 60 seconds and increase if needed.
How do I know when the mug cake is done?
The top should look set, and the cake should rise. If the center looks wet, microwave for 10–15 more seconds.
Can I make it gluten-free?
Yes! Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend instead of all-purpose flour.
Can I bake this in the oven?
Yes! Bake in an oven-safe ramekin at 350°F (175°C) for 12–15 minutes.
Can I make it vegan?
Absolutely! Use non-dairy milk and swap butter with oil or vegan butter.
