Photo: CakeontheRun
Yesterday was Black Forest Cake Day, and I posted a recipe for a variation: Black Forest Pie. It's a very retro recipe. But maybe you do want Black Forest Cake, but you only want a single serving, not a whole cake. Well here's a super easy recipe for Black Forest Mug Cake from Cake on the Run via the Great British Bake-Off newsletter. I love Mug Cakes. Quick and Easy..and delicious! Make this tonight!
