Mug Cakes

  • You wouldn't believe the difference it makes when you make mug cake with an egg yolk instead of a whole egg. These are yummy.

  • Hi Klinker,

    Thanks for the wonderful mug cake recipes, they really help me stay on track, better than having a whole cake in the house I use egg beaters in mines.
  • You are welcome. On the Egg Beaters, I guess if one egg is equal to 3 tablespoons of Beaters, then a yolk must be equal to 1 1/2 tablespoons. I believe Egg Beaters are made of egg whites, so I hope it turns out good for you.
