Cake: The College Dorm Version

Best idea for dorms with only microwaves EVER! My mom's friend from work and church sent this recipe for cake that can be made in a mug. A MUG! How awesome is that?

Cake in a Mug:

1 box Angel food cake mix (MUST be angel food)
1 box cake mix of your choice
water

Mix the two boxes of cake mix very, very well. Fill a mug--I would recommend a taller one to prevent spillage--with 1/3 cup of the mix. You can guessimate by filling a regular-sized mug about 1/3, or a taller mug about 1/4 full. Then, fill with 3 Tbsp water, or about 5-6 of those plastic spoons, and mix well. It should look like a cake batter, a thick liquid. Then microwave for one minute.

And that's it! Then all you have to do is enjoy, either on its own, or with ice cream, syrup or whipped cream! How simple, right? Make sure to keep any leftover cake mix in an airtight container. Also, since the mixes need to be mixed well, a different-colored cake mix is recommended. For example, try a chocolate or red velvet cake mix with the angel food cake mix. Yellow or white cake is fine too, but it's harder to see if you mixed it well with the angel food cake.

Trust me, this is a great quick fix dessert, perfect for dorm students!
