Recipe Steps
- Take a big mug. Combine all the ingredients in the mug.
- Stir with a spoon until there are no lumps.
- Take a dollop of salted caramel sauce on a spoon and insert it into the middle. Then sit a truffle on top.
- Cook for 1 minute 30 seconds. Stop at 30-second intervals. This will prevent it from spilling over. At 1 minute add in the marshmallows. Turn on the microwave again and finish cooking. Remove from the microwave when the time is up, allow it to cool and set for a few minutes.
- Dust with cocoa, and serve with an extra little dollop of salted caramel sauce and a dollop of cream or ice cream. Enjoy every bite.
- NOTE: To make it extra chocolatey, after the mug cake comes out of the microwave, sit another truffle in and allow it to melt as the cake sets a little.
