Hmm... I just made this and I must say it was definitely not what I expected! I guess you can't really have high hopes for a cake made in a mug in the microwave but I did expect it to be more cake-like than what it turned out, which was what I imagine chewing on melted rubber to be (texture-wise). Taste-wise it was yummy, so not a complete loss!

I couldn't stop laughing when I read this! I grabbed my laptop and made it right away. So easy! Tip: After removing from coffee mug, I sliced it in thirds horizontally and put strawberry jam between the layers. I then poured brandy over the top. Enjoy!!

I split this between two mugs, and it was plenty. We both enjoyed this very much. Even though I added the chocolate chips, it was not too sweet.
