Ingredients

  • 15.25 oz angel food cake mix or 1 box - depending on the brand
  • 15.24 oz white cake mix or 1 box - depending on the brand

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cake mixes to combine.
  • Transfer the cake mix to an airtight food storage container and keep it in a cool, dry place for up to two months.

To prepare mug cake:

  • Combine 3 tablespoons of the mug cake mix with 2 tablespoons of water in a microwave-safe mug; stir well (the batter should look foamy).
  • Microwave on high for 1 minute until the cake is fully cooked.
  • Top the cake with frosting or other toppings of your choice.

Notes

Topping ideas: frosting, powdered sugar, marshmallow fluff, Nutella, peanut butter, chocolate candies, whipped cream, ice cream, chocolate sauce, caramel sauce, fresh berries, sliced bananas, and mini marshmallows.
  • The mug cake mix keeps well in a zip-lock bag and the microwaving instructions can be written on the bag.
  • Any flavor for the second cake mix can be used, but the angel food cake is necessary because it contains the eggs needed to make the cake turn out correctly.
