Cake in a Coffee Cup 1 cake mix any flavor 1 ( 4 serving size) instant pudding mix ( not sugar free), any flavor Place dry cake mix and dry pudding mix into a large bowl and blend well with a whisk. This will be about 4 �?4 ½ cups dry mix and will make 8-9 coffee cup cake mixes. Place ½ cup dry mix into a sandwich bag. Place mix into a corner of the bag and tie it there with a twist tie. 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 bought the size the recipe calls for. It can’t have any metallic paint on it because it will be used in the microwave. Places like WalMart and craft stores sell plain cups. Decorating the cups: Paint on the cup if you like. DecoArt Ultra Gloss Acrylic Enamel is one brand of craft paint that can be made dishwasher safe by baking the painted cup in the oven. (instructions are on the bottle of paint usually). Glaze mix 1/3 cup powdered sugar 1 ½ tsp dry flavoring ( such as powdered lemonade mix, powdered orange breakfast drink mix, cocoa powder) Vanilla powder sold by coffee flavorings Select the flavoring appropriate to the cake you are making. For the pineapple coconut cake include flaked coconut in a separate bag with instructions to sprinkle it over the frosted cake. Place the glaze mix ingredients into a sandwich bag and tie into corner of bag. 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 in each coffee cup. Now attach the following baking instructions to each coffee cup.
Bake a cake in a coffee cup
Generously spray inside of coffee cup with cooking spray. Empty contents of large packet into cup. Add 1 egg white, 1 tbsp oil, 1 tbsp water to dry mix. Mix 15 seconds, carefully mixing in all the dry mix. Microwave on full power 2 minutes.( you may not get satisfactory results in a low wattage small microwave). While cake is cooking, place ingredients from “Glaze Mix�?into a very small container and add 1 ½ tsp water. Mix well. When cake is done, pour glaze over cake in cup. Enjoy while warm.

Actually, Michelle, I had this thread link saved in a Word doc along with all the replies to it so I'd have a quick reference for it. I thought it sooo interesting I just HAD to save it in a more secure place, IYKWIM?? I do this once in a while to what I personally deem as a HOT HOT HOT TOPIC for myself. After what happened over a year ago to our original WLPC I don't want to loose these kinda ideas/topics ever again..... Anyhoot, you beat me to it, but, thanks, Michelle for adding this thread link over in our WLPCtoo board's HOT TOPICS! page!!!  Marian |

Hey ladies just had an idea for those glaze mixes. I know you can make a cake glaze of just powdered sugar and water or milk. I've also read about flavoring sugar with a vanilla bean or with citrus zest, I'm not sure if it would work with powdered sugar, but it might be worth a try! I've got a couple of citrus fruits here that I'll try and let you know how it works. Jenny |

Do we need to adjust the recipe a bit since the new mugs are larger? This seems so easy. I must try it sometime. Sharon |
