COFFEE MUG CAKE



Coffee Mug Cake image

I was wanting a small serving of cake, but didn't want to make the whole box. This is what I came up with. It came out light and fluffy and hit the spot. I think it could be used with any boxed cake, but I used a Betty Crocker brand. Also, if you decide to use the real egg try beating the whole egg in a separate bowl and then pouring off about half.

COFFEE MUG CHOCOLATE CAKE

This is great for those times when I have a chocolate craving that just won't go away. It's quick, easy and makes a very small portion. I've tried it with semi-sweet chocolate chips, can't wait to try it with peanut butter chips and white chocolate chips. Great for an afternoon snack for the kids and it's simple enough that they can make it themselves.
