Being in college means you can eat cake at any time of the day. If you don't do this, then you really are doing college wrong. Maybe the reason you fail to enjoy the appropriate amount of cake is because you haven't been informed about how simple of a task making cake can be. Have I surprised you? Because despite what you’ve grown up with making a cake doesn't require an oven and can be made in less than 2 minutes. And I will teach you how to make my favorite mug cakes.

A mug cake is literally a cake in a mug, like the one you use for coffee or tea. Once you have your favorite microwave safe mug, all you need is a minimum of two ingredients, boxed cake mix and sparkling water. The beautiful thing about this recipe is you can be creative as you want. This works with any flavor of cake mix and any flavor of sparkling water.

So pick your favorite, add around half a cup of cake mix and three to four spoons of that sparkling water to your mug. Make sure that you mix until it reaches the consistency of normal cake, that way when it cooks, it will taste like normal cake.

Then microwave the mixture for one minute; if it looks wet still put it in for a couple more seconds. Once you're done, let it cool, so you don't burn your tongue. And then you have a cake! You can add frosting and sprinkles to your desired taste.

I've also gotten so advanced as to place an Oreo in the middle of my mix and had a mug cake with a full Oreo inside. Come up with your own cool ideas and enjoy your sugar. Once you buy your two ingredients, you have enough to make at least 10 mug cakes.

You can share with friends, make a cute dessert for birthdays or eat them all yourself — no judgement. Remember, we are only young once, and cake makes people happy!

Enjoy your life.
