sometimes you just want something sweet.

I’m sorry; you can make cake in a mug? And I’m just hearing about this? Mug Cakes: 100 Speedy Microwave Treats by Leslie Bilderback is the latest and tastiest way to get your treat fix. The best thing about this recipe book is that you can get your dose of dessert without a giant cake floating around to gorge yourself on afterward. Been there, and eating an entire batch of anything is no bueno.

Each tasty treat takes literally minutes to make. I love that Leslie includes the classics like Strawberry ShortMug Cake, and also recipes that aren’t necessarily cake like Pumpkin Mug Pie. You can be all festive with these specialty desserts, and it’s perfect for a family with all different tastes. Then there’s the Better-Than-Sex Mug Cake, hello lover.
