Default "3-2-1" (cake for one or more.......)

So simple - even a 4 yr. old can make this:

Take two dry cake mixes (one MUST be angel food, the other can be a chocolate or any other flavor cake mix you like)

In a mixing bowl, dump the two dry mixes into the same bowl. Mix the dry cake mixes together.

Put the two, mixed, dry cake mixes in a ziploc bag.

Now, when you need a little sweet 'kick':

Put the following in a microwave proof coffee cup:

3 tablespoons of the mixed cake mixes

2 tablespoons water

mix together the ingredients in your coffee cup

Place the cup in the microwave for 1 minute.

When done, you can either eat like it is or add a bit of frosting.

I take the dry, mixed cake mixes on camping trips. Works out great for hubby and I for a quick dessert and the grandkids like making their own "cake".

Thanks for sharg this. This is great.....I'm planning a trip and am looking for exactly this sort of recipe...I found one on facebook this week using:
One box Angel food cake
One 20 oz. can of crushed pinapple with juice.
Mix and it will begin to foam, put in greased pan and bake at 350 till done.
I have bought ingrediants and plan a test run this week.

I like the idea of yours because you can make a smaller amount.

Slick trick! We can't eat a whole cake for just the two of us, so I will try this and we can have a little treat whenever we want and no stale cake to throw out! Thanks for posting!

The last time I made the angel food and pineapple cake, I added a package of rasberry jello. You could use any flavor, I guess but this turned out great.

Thanks. My birthday was recently, and DH made a cake in a 9x13 cake. Much as I love cake, I was ready to be done with it! This makes so much more sense!
