Notes
Selecting Mug: Firstly make sure that the cup you select is microwave safe and secondly, the size of it matters too. The size shouldn't be too small or the cake batter will overflow as it cooks.
The size of your mug shouldn't be too large either or you risk a rubbery textured cake. For this cake, opt for a 12 oz mug since this one has more batter than usual mug cake recipes.
