3-2-1 Mug Cake - SUPER EASY....

Dry mix/stir together:

1 box of Angel Food cake mix & 1 box of ANY FLAVOR other cake mix (we like double chocolate). Makes a lot for future fun!

I was lazy and put both mixes into a lg. Tupperware pitcher and shook them up really good. That is then the base mix.

Place: 3 Tablespoons of the mixed up cake mixes into a microwave safe decent size mug.

Add: 2 Tablespoons of water - stir to mix. May add about 1 t. mini chips at this point.

Microwave: 1 minute

VOILLA!!! A cake in a mug that will satisfy any sweet tooth in no time at all! This will be in our camper supplies for EVER.

*************************************

I had been feeling guilty about not having any treats per say in the camper. Hub gets a sweet tooth going at night. So, I saw this on Pinterest and tried it. IT WORKs VERY WELL! So, now I keep 2 soup mugs in the camper, and a bag of this mixed up. There's a herd of variations on it too. I served it with a drizzle of choc sauce over the cake, some FF whipped cream, nuts and a cherry. If you use apple cake, a drizzle of caramel sauce on it when it's warm, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The cake is not dense.. it's more Angel food cake-ish, but we love it. It is MUCHO better with a few chocolate chips tossed in the batter or some powdered unsweetened Ghirardelli cocoa to punch up the chocolate flavor. I didn't have mini's so I just chopped up a T. of reg. chocolate chips. Worked fine!

Now hub requests a 6-4- 1.5 cake. I use a lg mug, and double the recipe and nuke it for 1.5 min. It still comes out perfect. It does suggest you have a 1000 wt microwave. The microwave in our camper is small and it works just as well as using the microwave in the house.

There are several threads about this on here with lots of variations.
One variation I like is to put some chocolate chips in. They will sink to the bottom and give a simulation of a molten lava cake.

Fun fun.. the sky is the limit with this.

On our last camping trip we were sitting around on a chilly morning with some friends. I nuked up a couple mugs of cakes, and the guys just inhaled them.

Can't wait to hear back from the cook!!
