Peanut Butter Chocolate Mug Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3 Tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 or 3 Tbsp sugar (I don't like my desserts too sweet, you can add another Tsbp)
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 heaping Tbsp Reese spread
Instructions
- In a small bowl whisk together the dry ingredients and the Reese's spread. Then add the milk and oil, whisk again until it's smooth. Pour the batter in a microwave safe mug. I believe mine was a 10 ounce.
- The batter with rise and then deflate quickly.
- Also keep in mind that the wattage in eachmicrowave is different. I cooked it for 75 seconds. I believe 70 second would have worked just fine.
- Remove carefully, and while still hot add a Tbsp of Reese's spread on top for that extra yumminess!

This recipe looks delicious! I like how it is in a mug too! I can’t wait to try it.
Yum! This looks so good and easy to make. I find mug cakes so interesting.
I love peanut butter so I will definitely be making this.
I’ve made a couple of mug cakes in the microwave before and I’m always amazed at how fast, easy and delicious they are. This recipe looks like a good addition to my mug list….I can’t imagine how this combo of peanut butter and chocolate wouldn’t be anything but great.
My family loves the combination of peanut butter and chocolate so this recipe could quickly become a favorite in our house.
I love this what a great idea! This can be used as a treat on cold winter nights and serve homemade hot chocolate with it. My fiancee will love this! He is a peanut butter Reese’s nut.
Pinning this, sounds like something my husband will love and the best part is, it’s so easy!!
Looks amazing!?
This looks like a yummy treat, and you can use the mug, so it’s not a giant serving
That sounds pretty good. A whole cake is wasted here. Between the two of us, my husband and I aren’t big sweets eaters.
I love mug cake recipes and this sounds yummy. Love peanut butter and chocolate.
My two favorite peanut butter and chocolate. This looks very delicious.
This recipe is so easy your children can make it for themselves.
Sounds delicious! Love mug cakes! Will definitely try this!
Something just for me
That looks so good. Perfect portion size for hubby and me.
Yummy! This is so easy… I thought it would be harder. Great for a quick snack!
Quick easy and full of chocolate.. what more could you want.. great idea and recipe… thank you for the post…
Perfect Idea…..Line the family up for a cake in cup baking and a movie watching treat~~
Can’t wait to surprise the kids with this when it gets cold out. top it off with a hot coco made in the crock pot
Mom a Super Hero YAY
This would be a delicious snack for me because I love peanut butter. My husband does not. So usually I make him brownies or something like that. Now I can personalize myself a treat!
This is perfect for a quick easy and delicious snack and no worry of overindulging because you just make a single serving! 🙂
I am loving this peanut butter chocolate mug cake recipe, I know my hubby would enjoy this also, I do like the fact that you can just add it in a mug and microwave and eat, How easy is this, yum!
Yum! I can’t wait to make this for a tasty breakfast!
I did not know that Reese made a spread. Shhh! Don’t tell my kids or granddaughter.
I love this recipe, great idea! My kids would love this!!
I love the idea of mug cakes, especially when I’m alone but there’s just one thing that bothers me.. how hard it is to clean the mug after!! don’t you?
It’s like cleaning cake from anything. I didn’t find it hard at all…
I am totally into mug cakes and reese’s spread – so i must make this. Consider it Pinned!
Easy to make snack when I want a treat.
Sounds really easy and looks yummy. I haven’t tried the Reese’s PB/Chocolate yet but will. It is so neat how a cake in the oven takes 25 minutes but in the microwave 75 seconds.
I am all for easy to make snacks and desserts. The fact that this mug cake is made with reese’s peanut butter AND chocolate seals the deal! #pinning 🙂
That looks so good! I wonder how it would be gluten free. And I could probably eat that spread by itself out of the jar!
This combines two things I love, chocolate and peanut butter, again!
Peanut Butter and Chocolate, together! I would be foolish to take a pass on this treat. I would not want to find out what I missed out on.
I haven’t tried their spread yet, but will get some to make this.
I like peanut butter anyway you make it. This looks great!!
I like seeing recipes that I can make and aren’t too difficult but ones I know my kids would enjoy. This would be one of them. Thanks for sharing.
This combines my favorite things! Chocolate and peanut butter are the best! Look forward to trying this out.
oh wow.that looks so good
How delicious! Makes my mouth water! 🙂
That would make a nice quick and easy treat to pass the time. Thanks for sharing it.
I’ve never heard of Reese’s spread before, but this super easy mug cake looks very tempting right now!! I wonder if it would come out the same way if I used gluten-free flour? Thanks so much for sharing!
Yummy, gotta try it!
I love these quick and easy mug recipes for times when I want something sweet but I don’t want a large recipe with plenty sitting around for me to indulge in. I will be trying this asap.
Your pics are great! I love how easy this is. We make mug cakes a lot, but I’ve never tried peanut butter/chocolate. That’s a winning combo!
All I can say is OMG! This looks so yummy and it is so easy to make!
I saved this on one of my Pinterest boards and I printed this.
I make something similar with coconut as well 🙂 yum!
How easy and delicious this sounds I’ll try it.
Thanks for the recipe.
