How To Make Mug Cake Magic:
- Step 1: Create the Mix: Combine equal parts Angel Food Cake Mix and your chosen cake mix (e.g., ½ box of each) in a large airtight container or zipper-top bag. Shake or stir well until fully combined.
- Step 2: Scoop Batter: When ready for a treat, scoop 3 tablespoons of the mixed cake batter into a standard microwave-safe mug.
- Step 3: Add Water: Add 2 tablespoons of water to the mug with the batter. Stir with a small spoon or fork until just combined, ensuring there are no large pockets of dry mix.
- Step 4: Microwave: Microwave the mug on high for 1 minute. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your microwave wattage.
- Step 5: Enjoy: Allow the mug to cool slightly before enjoying your delicious and low-calorie mug cake!
Pro Tip: Top with a small amount of whipped cream, fresh berries, or a light drizzle of chocolate syrup immediately after microwaving.
