Sandi at Rose Chintz Cottage is having a party with the color pink for breast cancer awareness month.Tea and a 3-2-1 cake is a perfect afternoon tea party treat! |
Wouldn't this make a pretty gift? |
1 box Angel Food cake mix (this is a MUST!)
1 box any flavor cake mix
In a food storage
bag, combine the two cake mixes together and mix well. For each individual cake
serving, measure 3 Tablespoons of the cake mix combination and mix it with 2
Tablespoons of water in a small microwave-safe container. such as a coffee mug, ungreased. Microwave on high for 1 minute, and you have
your own instant individual 3-2-1 cake!
Keep remaining
cake mixture stored in the food storage bag and use whenever you feel like a treat!
You can top each cake with a dollop of fat free whipped topping and/or some
fresh fruit.
I made a simple powdered sugar glaze to ice mine. I'm telling you, this cake is a fabulous treat!!
I am sharing this with:

An individual microwave cake in a cup! Wow!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great and so pretty as you have it served! Looking forward to trying your recipe!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of gifting it with a mug:@)
ReplyDeleteWow! Cake couldn't get any easier than this, Kitty! What a fabulous idea and the cake mixes in a mug would make the cutest gift. You have the best recipes! Thank you so much for sharing this with my special Pink Tea today. Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sandi
This is such a sweet idea to give as a gift with a pretty mug!
ReplyDeleteAWWW Kitty - your festive little cake is perfect! LOVE the idea of gifting the mix in a gorgeous mug. And toping it with pink glaze is perfect too. Your photo makes it look irresistible. Thanks for linking back to my blog for the recipe. Fun fun fun!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! What a great little gift suitable for so many occasions. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOn the topic of the bottle light:I am so glad I saw your comment and question.I tried to email you but it was returned to me. I would have felt terrible if I never responded. Bless your hubby for trying to do this project with you. My husband used a table top drill press. You insert the drill bit in there. You can use a 5/8 to 3/4 inch diamond drill bit. The end is actually dipped in diamond dust. They are not cheap (around $30) We made the investment because I want to make more bottles and hopefully sell them on Etsy. Our press does not squirt water at the same time it drills but you can remedy this by squirting water with a spray bottle while he is drilling the glass. It cuts it very clean. Good luck with this project and have fun. I know it will tun out amazing. Please send me a picture!!!
Oh I'm going to try this for sure! What a wonderful idea for gifts at a tea party! Thanks for sharing!

I got this recipe from a friend a few months ago and it is so perfect for many things. Glad I came by today as I had not thought of little individual gifts in a cute cup for folks who I want to remember with just a little something.

I am always grateful for the wonderful blog.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very nice idea.

It is the season that the Japanese love most.

I wish I had seen this recipe when I was in college. The girls in my dorm used to attempt to bake cupcakes in the microwave for their friends on birthdays. One of the cake mix companies actually had a kit that you used to bake them in the microwave. I used to use it. Not only was it expensive, but it was a mess. The cake was always overdone when I made it too.
ReplyDeleteYour way sounds a lot easier to use, way less expensive, and I bet they are more yummy too. Thanks for sharing! I bet these mixes and a pretty mug would make great gifts for Christmas this year.
What a great idea and so easy! Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a sweet comment - I greatly appreciate it! I am now following your blog and I look forward to your future posts. I hope you are enjoying your week.

Hi Kitty,
ReplyDeletethat sounds like an ingenious idea to bake a little cake portion in the microwave. Alas I don't get that cake mixture here. But may be its a luck, because I would probably always need such a cake for my sweet tooth. Thanks for sharing.
Best greetings, Johanna
What a great idea when the old sweet tooth needs a fix! Joni
ReplyDeleteI heard of something like this once before, but I didn't remember to save the recipe. I will pin this one for sure (if your blog allows pinning). I love the idea of this in a big way.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try this...what a neat idea! Thanks so much for sharing :)

ReplyDeleteI used to cook but never was one to really enjoy it. After I lost my husband, I do not do much anymore. I certainly enjoy eating what others prepare tho.
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't mind a guy is visiting today for Pink Saturday. My wife is a breast cancer survivor, so I now really appreciate pink. I hope you don't mind if I steal that little cake in the picture. I can eat cake any time of the day or night. :^)
ReplyDeleteKitty this is a great idea! Visiting from Pink Saturday!
