Dessert in a mug: Lemon blueberry edition

While it may technically still be winter, it is starting to feel like spring outside. The temperature is starting to warm up and the trees are beginning to get their leaves back. This time of year is when all the new seasonal flavors start coming out, with everything from carrots to rhubarb. If you are wanting to celebrate this season, this lemon blueberry mug cake is the perfect way to do so. This sweet treat is easy to whip up in a dorm room, and can double as an easy blueberry muffin recipe if you exclude the lemon.
