    Source of Recipe


    Laurie

    List of Ingredients




    1 box Cake Mix (any flavor)
    1 package Instant Pudding mix (4 ounce)
    make sure flavor compliments cake flavor
    8 12 ounce coffee mugs(non-metalic)

    Glaze Mix:
    1/3 cup Powdered Sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons Dry flavoring (below)

    Recipe



    Place dry cake mix and dry pudding mix into a large bowl and blend
    well with a wire whisk. This will be about 4 – 4 ½ cups of dry mix
    and will make 8-9 coffee cup cake mixes. Place ½ cup dry mix into a
    sandwich size zip baggie. Smooth baggie so as much air as possible
    is removed, then seal. Continue making packets until all your dry
    mix is used.

    Flavors
    Lemon cake mix- lemon pudding
    Yellow cake mix- chocolate pudding
    Devils food cake mix- chocolate pudding
    Pineapple cake mix- coconut pudding
    Butterscotch cake mix- butterscotch pudding

    Select a large coffee cup. Check it to be sure it holds 1 ½ cups of
    water. That way you will be sure you have chosen the size the recipe
    calls for. You can find loads of coffee cups in different sizes at
    the $1.00 store.

    **Your mug cannot have any metallic paint on it because it will be
    used in the microwave.**


    **Dry flavorings for glaze: powdered lemonade mix, powdered orange
    breakfast drink mix, cocoa powder or Vanilla powder, confectioners
    sugar icing, etc.

    Place the glaze mix ingredients into a sandwich size zip baggie and
    remove as much air as possible before sealing. Label this bag "glaze
    mix" and attach it to the other bag with a twist tie. Place one
    baggie cake mix and one baggie glaze mix into each coffee cup.

    Cut two 16 inch sections of clear or colored plastic wrap and lay
    them on top of each other forming an `X' shape, then place mug in
    center and bring wrap up around them, bringing the top together with
    a ribbon. Now attach the following baking instructions to each
    coffee cup:

    Bake a cake in a coffee cup!
    1.) Generously spray inside of coffee cup with cooking spray.
    2.) Empty contents of large packet into cup.
    3.) Add 1 Egg White, 1 T. Vegetable Oil & 1 T. Water to dry mix.
    4.) Mix 15 seconds, carefully mixing in all the dry mix.
    5.) Microwave on full power for 2 minutes.
    (You may not get satisfactory results in a low wattage microwave).
    6.) While cake is cooking, place ingredients from "Glaze Mix" into a
    very small container and add 1 ½ t. water.
    7.) Mix well.
    8.) When cake is done, pour glaze over cake in cup.
    Enjoy while warm!

    This is a great gift for kids ages 8 & up. If they have a toy bake
    oven, they can handle this one too. Also neat for homeschool: Home
    Economics, Maths, Science, and Health classes. Be creative.
