Between promoting my new release, A CORPSE AMONG THE CAROLERS, and preparing for Christmas my days are jam-packed which means there’s little time for baking (well, until the week of Christmas) but this gal loves a homemade sweet treat every now and again. What to do? Make a mug cake! It’s quick and yummy and the perfect way to finish dinner. In fact I can whip this dessert up, cook it and while it cools I can feed Connie her dinner before I settle down with to enjoy the treat.
