Need new recipes for the single serving mug cakes
 
My GD is giving out mason jars, filled with the mug cake ingredients, as the favors for her Sweet 16 party.

Her party is going to be at a working farm. We sure could use some recipes for the mug cakes. Thanks in advance.

2 t cream cheese

Beat egg and milk together with a fork in a coffee cup, adding salt and pepper to taste. Tear bread into dime-size pieces; stir in. Add cream cheese; stir in. Tear or cut prosciutto into small pieces; add to mixture. Sprinkle with thyme.

I think she needs a recipe for the dry ingredients, to add to the mason jars, as gifts. I would go with google.

Will the favors be finished cakes or cake mixes to be made later?

Ladibug - I have no idea what wattage microwaves these recipes were cooked in but I am guessing it was probably 1100.

The ingredients will be put in the mason jars to be brought home and made later. My DIL is having a party with her friends to prepare the ingredients. What fun they're going to have! Thank you for the recipes!

I had a good file of these recipes but got an encryption virus that deleted all of them I think. I haven't gone through my hard drive to see if I can recover any. I did get the virus cleaned up though.
I do know I did this for Christmas gifts for my coworkers. I put the ingredients in a bag with the mug and they loved it. I know one of them used those fruit cups and some cake mix that was sprinkled over top of the fruit to make a wonderful dessert. If I can find the file and it is in good shape I will send it to you. Otherwise you might google for them. That is where I got mine.

YOu could always go to the book store and check out the recipes in the MUG RUG COOKbook. I saw it at walgreens recently for under 20 think it was a lot less.

Thanks to you all. Sweet GD decided that everyone would like chocolate - so she prepared 61 chocolate mug cakes! Due to the weather the party is postponed until this Tuesday, when school is closed. We were supposed to have use of the family kitchen at the farm, but that changed - and so the menu had to be changed to food that didn't require heating, or the use of sterno - as there is no way to heat the water.
Right now I am thinking fondly of the old days, when you could invite 3 girls from school to come home with you and have some homemade birthday cake. Oh, well........
Are we all having fun yet??????
