It Is Your Birthday Mug Cake

I probably should have used black and gray sprinkles to really nail the joke of the episode, but I just couldn't bring myself to be that dull. But, you can use whatever color sprinkles you like for this easy birthday cake mug cake! It's a perfect sweet treat for the office or if you've got a spur of the moment birthday cake craving!
It's best served in a patented Michael Scott "World's Best Boss" mug, but your favorite mug will work too in a pinch!
