Cake in a Coffee Cup Preparation

***READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE STARTING*** Place dry cake mix and dry pudding mix into a large bowl and blend well with a whisk. This will be about 4 ? 4 1/2 cups dry mix and will make 8-9 coffee cup cake mixes. Place 1/2 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 This is a terrific gift idea for college students, singles, and elderly people! Im going to try it and if it works well, make some for each of my students! Select a large coffee cup. Check it to be sure it holds 1 1/2 cups of water. That way you will be sure you have bought the size the recipe calls for. It cant 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 [*diabetics use powdered sugar replacement] 1 1/2 tsp dry flavoring ( such as powdered lemonade mix [*diabetics use sugarfree], powdered orange breakfast drink mix [*diabetics use sugarfree Tang], 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 1/2 tsp water. Mix well. When cake is done, pour glaze over cake in cup. Enjoy while warm. busted 10/98 SH posted to Holiday Exchange list Posted to EAT-LF Digest by Angie Phillips on Dec 11, 1998,
