CAKE MIX MUG CAKE

Steps:

• In a gallon sized ziplock bag, combine the two boxes of cake mix. Shake the bag to mix thoroughly.
• Use either a microwave safe paper cup or a microwavable mug. If using a mug, lightly coat the inside with non-stick spray. The spray makes clean-up easier.
• Into the mug, add 3 tablespoons cake mix and 2 tablespoons water. Add 1-2 tablespoons of add-ins, such as a handful of chocolate chips. Stir to combine.
• Microwave the cake batter on high for 1 minute.
• If using frosting, allow your cake in a mug to cool for a few minutes before adding frosting.

CAKE IN A MUG

Steps:

• Check your coffee mugs to make sure each one holds 1 1/2 cups water.

Divide mix into 8 small plastic bags (about 1/2 cup each). Place mix into a corner of each bag and tie it there with a twist tie.
• Make glaze mix: in a medium bowl, combine confectioners sugar with powdered flavoring mix. Divide into 8 small plastic bags and close bag with a twist tie. Attach each glaze mix to the cake mix bags with a twist tie. Place one of each bag into each cup.
• Attach the following instructions to each cup: Generously spray inside of cup with cooking spray. Empty contents of cake mix packet in cup. Add 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of oil, 1 tablespoon water to dry mix. Mix 15 seconds, carefully mixing in all dry mix. Microwave on full power for 2 minutes. While cake is cooking, place ingredients from Glaze mix into a very small container and add 1 1/2 teaspoon water. Mix well. When cake is done, pour glaze over cake in cup. Enjoy while warm.
