This mug cake comes together in about 50 minutes total, with most of that time spent baking. You'll start by making a crumbly butter mixture, then transform half of it into a smooth batter with eggs and milk before topping everything with juicy plums and the reserved crumble—the result is a wonderfully moist, golden cake that's worth the wait.
