Oh. My. Goodness. Ladies (and gentlemen), let me introduce you to my absolute favorite midnight guilty pleasure – the Nutella-Stuffed Churro Mug Cake! Trust me, when those late-night cravings hit, this is the kind of treat that’ll make you want to do a happy dance in your kitchen at 2 AM (I’m speaking from experience! 💃).
You know those moments when you’re scrolling through Netflix, and suddenly your sweet tooth starts screaming? Well, this recipe is your new bestie. The best part? It takes less than 5 minutes to make, and you probably have all the ingredients in your pantry right now!
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
– 1 egg
– 3 tablespoons milk
– 2 tablespoons melted butter
– 2 tablespoons Nutella
– Cinnamon sugar for topping
– A microwave-safe mug (the cute one you’ve been saving for special occasions!)
Let’s get cooking, bestie!
1. In your mug, mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder. Trust me, don’t skip the mixing – nobody wants flour pockets in their midnight snack!
1. Add the egg, milk, and melted butter. Mix until smooth (and maybe lick the spoon, I won’t judge 😉).
1. Here’s the game-changer: Drop a dollop of Nutella right in the center. Push it down slightly – we want that gooey chocolate surprise in the middle!
1. Microwave for about 1-1.5 minutes. Every microwave is different, so keep an eye on it! You want it fluffy, not rubber-like.
1. While it’s still warm, sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar. And when I say generously, I mean GENEROUS, honey!

The best part about this recipe? You can totally customize it! Sometimes I add a splash of vanilla extract when I’m feeling fancy, or swap the Nutella for peanut butter when I’m going through one of those phases (we all have them, right?).
Pro tip: Keep a jar of premixed cinnamon sugar ready in your pantry. Trust me, future-you will thank present-you at midnight!
I can’t even tell you how many times this recipe has saved me from those intense sugar cravings. It’s like a warm hug in a mug, but make it dessert!
