5 Minute Chocolate Fudge S'mores Mug Cake. Oh hi! Just sharing a s’mores mug cake today. That can be made in 5 minutes. You know… NO BIG DEAL. Since you’re asking, yes… I have always thought the whole “cake in a mug in a microwave” thing was sort of skeevy. Well, until I was feeling superbly lazy last week and housing a mad chocolate craving. Like, really mad. And another. Annnnnd maybe another. And another? Then I thought… is there anything in the world that I’m more obsessed with than s’mores?

In minutes, with a few tweaks and twists and makeshift graham crusts and marshmallow middles, I had a s’mores mug. And it was just SO… FUDGEY. Sidebar: for years as a quick treat, I’ve melted butter in a bowl, added graham cracker crumbs, thrown on some chocolate chips and marshmallows then stuffed it in the microwave for 10 seconds. And you know what? This is like, A BILLION TIMES BETTER. Sorry for the shouting, but it’s necessary. !!! I want to marry this mug. 5 Minute Chocolate Fudge S’mores Mug Cake [adapted from food network] 1 large egg. Red Velvet and Strawberry Trifles with Cheesecake Filling.

For the most part, Kyle and I agree on pretty much everything that comes out of our kitchen. It makes for pretty easy living in this house and loads of fun when I menu plan and decide on what kind of sweets to bake. The only recent exception to this lovely mutually agreeable relationship is cream cheese frosting. While I can eat the tangy frosting with a spoon, Kyle can take it or leave it. And yet I keep making it not because I forget how he feels about it, but because I think I can change his mind with different recipes. So when I made red velvet cupcakes last weekend, I ended up with a few extra frosted cupcakes and a moment of panic about what to do with them since I knew Kyle wasn’t about to bring Valentine’s cupcakes to his construction site at work.

It took me all of about .2 seconds to decide what needed to be done: repurpose them! I scraped off the frosting (did you really just question what happened to it?) Italian sodas. June 30, 2011 | Sweet Recipes | Comments Growing up, these Italian sodas were my favorite!! My mom and I would always stop by a little coffee shack on our road trips to Oregon. I remember ordering the blueberry Italian soda in the summer instead of ice cream because they were so refreshing. I hadn’t had one of these since I was a kid, so I wanted to recreate the easy recipe.

I even made my own blueberry and strawberry syrup instead of using Torani. If you don’t want to go through the hassle of making your own syrup, you can use a syrup from the store.
