Coconut Macaroon Muffin in a Mug

The first time I tried a muffin in a mug, I was mesmerized.  How could I be this old and not have known about them?  I’ve made all kinds – and they turned out sooo many different ways.  Some were too eggy, some were too dense, some were not sweet at all, but some were deliciously sweet but oh-so-unhealthy (sweetening with a big enormously overflowing tablespoon of Nutella was yummy but yikes!).  Then I read Trim Healthy Mama, and learned about some great alternatives to my Nutella a.m. (and sometimes p.m.) indulgence.  I also became much more adventurous in the kitchen.  

This can be a bad thing. 

Or this can be a very, very good thing.  And in the case of my Coconut Macaroon Muffin in a Mug, I happen to think it’s a good thing.  Cake like. Sweet. Coconut goodness. If you’re following THM, this is an “S” muffin.

It’s almost like cake for breakfast, yet without the sugar cravings that normally come along with eating actual cake for breakfast.  Yes.  I’ve done that.  Not proud.  Please tell me I’m not alone…

If you try this recipe, please come back and let me know your thoughts! Enjoy!
