Description

Whipping up New 1 2 3 Cake is like creating pure kitchen magic with just three simple ingredients. Friends and family will devour this delightful dessert faster than you can mix the batter.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 box angel food cake mix

Supporting Ingredients:

  • 1 mug coffee

Liquid Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Combine yellow cake mix and angel food cake mix in a large mixing bowl. Thoroughly blend the two dry cake mixes until completely integrated.
  2. Measure 3 tablespoons of the mixed cake powder into a large coffee mug. Pour 3 tablespoons of water directly into the mug.
  3. Microwave the mug contents for exactly 1 minute at full power. Remove carefully using a kitchen towel or oven mitt.
  4. Select your preferred topping – sprinkle chopped nuts, dollop whipped cream, or add a scoop of vanilla ice cream across the warm cake surface.
  5. Optional: Insert a small chunk of white chocolate into the cake’s center before microwaving. The chocolate will create a molten core when heated.
  6. Serve the mug cake immediately while warm. Enjoy your quick dessert straight from the mug with your chosen garnishes.

Notes

  • Store the dry cake mix blend in an airtight container at room temperature for quick single-serve desserts anytime.
  • Experiment with different cake mix flavor combinations like chocolate and vanilla or yellow and red velvet for variety.
  • Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or cocoa powder to the mug cake mixture for an extra flavor boost before microwaving.
  • White chocolate center works best when chopped into small pieces so it melts evenly during cooking.
