A new-fashioned trend in cooking is cupcakes in a mug. This easy and quick dessert is as tasty as regular muffins and simple oven-baked muffins. Our muffins are cooked in the microwave in 3 minutes at most. The only caveat to this delicacy is its dryness. This happens, most likely, due to the cooking method. But this drawback is easily eliminated, you just need to soak the cupcakes in a mug with syrup.
