I have a soft spot for mug cakes; there’s just something uniquely comforting about whipping up a quick treat in my kitchen. One of my absolute favorites is a Peanut Butter Banana Cottage Cheese Mug Cake. It’s rich, it’s fluffy, and it wraps you in a cozy hug from that first warm bite. Plus, it packs a protein punch thanks to the cottage cheese, making it a delightful snack that I can feel good about indulging in.
