Cinnamon Roll in a Mug

Step 1

Add the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, milk, vanilla, and melted butter to a small bowl and stir until combined.

Step 2

One the dough is solid, drop onto a clean and slightly floured surface.

Step 3

Use your hands to flatten dough into a rectangle .

Step 4

In a small bowl, melt the butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon for about 1 minute. (Depending on how cold your butter is.) Stir well.

Step 5

Pour filling over dough rectangle and then roll up into a cinnamon roll shape.

Step 6

Place roll into mug (I prefer to use a standard size mug, nothing too wide). Make sure your mug is sprayed with non-stick spray or greased.

Step 7

Heat roll in microwave for 90 seconds. If the dough appears WET on top, it may need to heat for a few more seconds. (10 second increments.) If the dough appears dry the cinnamon roll is done. You can also test with a toothpick.

Step 8

Stir confectioners sugar and milk together in a bowl until smooth.

Step 9

Pour over warm cinnamon roll in the mug or invert the roll onto a plate and pour glaze over top.
