321 Mug Cake

321 Mug Cake

 

Sometimes when you want a piece of cake, you don’t want to make a whole cake, right? Here is how I solve that problem with my 321 Mug Cake. Come see what I mean!

 

 

Ingredients:

• 1 box Angel Food cake mix
• 1 box ANY flavor cake mix

 

Directions:

Combine two boxes of cake mix in large bowl (you can use ANY flavor of cake mix but the other one must always be Angel Food mix).

Stir until combined together

Store in a large bowl/baggie or divide into smaller air tight jars and print directions on label. Combine with a cute coffee mug and you have a simple but personal gift.

To Prepare:

Place 3 Tablespoons cake mixture in a microwave safe container (coffee mugs work perfectly)
Mix in 2 Tablespoons of water
Microwave on high for 1 minute

Variations and Notes:

~ Top with a dollop of fruit or whipped topping!
~ Try various flavors of cake mix but it must always be combined with an Angel Food mix.
~ Keep the mix tightly sealed in an airtight container until used
~ Try mixing it with milk instead of water for a richer flavor
~ Drop in a few chips in your favor flavor (chocolate, vanilla, butterscotch)

**  The mug used in this article is a MUG as opposed to what I call my grandmother’s coffee/tea cup! Therefore, I doubled the amounts used. I mean, if you are going to a chocolate snack…why not have enough to share?  It did not change the cooking time.

This cake is called 3-2-1 because you need 3 Tablespoons of mix, 2 Tablespoons of water and 1 minute in the microwave!
