S'mores mug cake for mug cake week day 6! Inspired by my strong craving for s'mores since the weather has gotten much nicer (most days) and the sun setting at 8:30 pm.
Even though it's still technically spring, I feel like in Toronto we just whizz by spring and fall and just jumps right into summer or winter. And lately, it's been a summer vibe ya know?
I contemplated and tested a couple variations for this mug cake in terms of the base. Should I go for a cookie cake base or a chocolate cake base? My taste testers all agreed that the cookie cake base was much better because it didn't over powder the graham crackers and marshmallows as much as the chocolate base did sooo thats what I went with. The ingredients are loosely based off my chocolate chip mug cake with just a couple changes:
- Flax Egg: Gives it that chewy cookie like texture!
- Drippy Nut Butter: Replaces oil or butter and gives it moisture. I like to use almond butter, cashew butter or tahini here because it doesn't alter the flavour as much as peanut butter would.
- Sugar: I love using coconut sugar in my mug cakes but cane sugar gives it a nice crispy surface which is really tasty too.
- Oat Flour: Like all of my mug cakes, it's made with a base of oat flour but it can easily be replaced with spelt or all purpose flour.
- Chocolate Chips + Marshmallows + Graham Crackers: It ain't s'mores without these components right? If you can't find vegan graham crackers, you can also sub with a crispy cookie or some sort.
TIP: If you prefer a chocolate base s'mores cake, swap 1 tablespoon of the oat flour with cocoa powder!
The simplicity of this s'mores dessert wins me over. All of the ingredients go into a mug and gets cooked in the microwave for about 1 minute. No setting up a fire, no smelling like a BBQ right after, no fuss and ready in 2 minutes.
And what you're left with if a super duper delicious cookie like cake in a mug with melty chocolate, marshmallows and crispy graham crackers. So much textures going on here I LOVE IT.
Until I can justify setting up a whole camp fire to toast some marshmallows, this is going to be my BFF for nights when I'm craving some s'mores.

I happened to have a few leftover marshmallows and some already ground up graham crackers from another recipe, so this was a great find.
This was an awesome mug cake! They don’t always work out in my experience but the texture here was great. Will be making this again. I love to eat to the bottom and then add some oat milk to the mug.
Oh and we made two at once and it took just about double the cooking time... I loved watching them fluff up in the microwave! 😆
