Cinnamon Roll Mug Cake is AH-MA-ZING!!!! It is super easy to make, tastes delicious, and disappears quickly! I am excited to try many different types of mug cakes now that I have discovered how awesome they are and how quickly they come together. My family loves cinnamon rolls and I knew a Cinnamon Roll Mug Cake would be a great one to try first! My parents are here visiting and spent the week and Thanksgiving with us, so I made a couple of these mug cakes for dessert one night and they were gone……fast! We have had the best week with my parents making a ton of food, going to the movies, playing games, decorating for Christmas, and shopping. My mom and I took my daughter to see Frozen and my dad and son saw Thor. We loved Frozen and I think a trip to Target is in my near future for the dolls. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with family, friends, and loved ones!
