I apologize if this has been posted already, but it is good and a cleaver way to control how much you want to make. Cooking an entire cake often involves waste or eating to much of it! You can serve several people or just one (you)!

THE 3, 2, 1 CAKE:

These individual little cakes are amazing
and ready to eat in one minute! They are perfect
for whenever you feel like a treat without all the fat
and calories that cake can have. Genius idea!

INGREDIENTS:

1 box Angel Food Cake Mix
1 box Cake Mix - Any Flavor
2 Tbsp. Water

Makes 1 serving.

DIRECTIONS:

In a ziploc bag, combine the two cake mixes together
and mix well. For each individual cake serving, take
out 3 Tablespoons of the cake mix combination and
mix it with 2 Tablespoons of water in a small microwave-safe
container. Microwave on high for 1 minute, and you have
your own instant individual little cake!

KEEP remaining cake mixture stored in the ziploc 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.

Helpful Tips:

This recipe is called 3, 2, 1 Cake because all you need
to remember is:

“3 tablespoons mix,
2 tablespoons water,
1 minute in the microwave!”

TRY various flavors of cake mix like carrot, red velvet, pineapple,
lemon, orange, etc. Just remember that one of the mixes has
to be the angel food mix; the other is your choice.
The flavor possibilities are endless!

NOTES:

The best thing is, you open both cake mixes into a gallon
storage bag, one that ‘zip locks’ or ‘self-seals’, or a
container that seals tightly. Shake the two cake mixes to
blend and then make the recipe. Storage of mix is simple,
put it on a shelf. No need to refrigerate, since the mix is dry.
Always remember that one of the cake mixes MUST be
Angel Food. The other can be any flavor.
The Angel Food is the cake mix that has the eggs whites
in it. So, if, anyone is allergic to egg whites, you CANNOT
serve this recipe.

I have a bag of the mix in my cabinet now. I like the little cakes. Not too sweet.
I won't forget to oil the little baking dish again. :)

Do you know if you can mix the cake mix from scratch and mix it with the Angel Food cake and get the same result? I don’t use boxed cake mixes because of all the trans fats. Same with frozen whipped toppings and pre made frostings. Ciurse you have to read the labels because some angel Food cakes also use hydrogenated oils/TRANS FATS.

Anyway, I was just curious if you have ever tried it by making the cake mix from scratch?
