Sno-Ball Mug CakeTeri Lyn Fisher

If you don't know what a Sno-Ball is, you should probably move on to the next chapter. Those round, fuzzy pink flavor wads are a staple of childhood (and a guilty pleasure of adulthood). Food coloring is optional here, but without it, this recipe looks much too grown-up.

Note:

To color your coconut pink, combine a handful of coconut and a drop of liquid food coloring in a ziplock bag, then knead it to spread the color. (Paste or gel food coloring doesn't work well here, as they tend to clump.)
