Brownies in a Mug and Shirley J Giveaway

I've seen a lot of recipes on Pinterest for making treats in a mug, and honestly, they haven't really turned out that well for me. Disappointing, really. I mean, the convenience of a one serving dessert made in a microwave?! Sounds too good to be true.

So, when I heard about Shirley J Cake in a Mug, I was honestly a little skeptical due to all my mug recipe failures, but certainly intrigued. I am a huge fan of Shirley J products, so I needed to give this Mugging! a try. Long story short, it was a big, delicious success!! Seriously.

In 90 seconds, I was able to bake up a mug of brownie for both me and my husband. 90 seconds!! Yum. The instructions couldn't be simpler. Pour the brownie mix into the mug, add in some water and any extra ingredients (chocolate chips definitely take it over the top - not literally) and cook in the microwave for 90 seconds. Let cool, then enjoy the goodness!!

Unlike other mug recipes, the Chocolate Brownie Cake was moist, flavorful, and not too spongy. The part that was the most difficult to deal with was waiting for it to cool down enough to eat it!!

There are 8 scrumptious Mugging! flavors: Chocolate Brownie Cake, Gluten Free Chocolate Brownie Cake, Pumpkin Spice, Walnut Bread, Yellow Cake, Corn Bread, Quiche, and No-Pan Pancake!

Not only are the mug cake mixes perfection, but the mugs themselves are simply fabulous. I am a fan of the mustache craze, and love that the mustache mug also resembles Santa's mustache! Not to mention, the adorable snowflake and mustache mugs are also a convenient size for hiding in the closet to enjoy your dessert all to yourself.

You can also purchase the mugs in a gift set, or bundle cookie mixes, mug cake mixes, and mugs together for a unique and fun gift for friends and neighbors (or yourself)! You can purchase all of the Shirley J Mugging! and cookie products at ShirleyJ.com or at most Utah Associated Food grocery stores.

Lucky for all of you, Shirley J is offering one lucky reader a mug, 3 cake mixes (winner's choice), and a cookie mix (winner's choice)!! Just fill out the Rafflecopter form below to enter. The giveaway will end on Sunday December 15th at Midnight MST and the winner will be announced on Monday December 16th.
