Coffee Mug Cake

Hello! So for my final post I decided to try another recipe. I decided on making a little cake in a coffee mug. I see them on Pinterest all the time and I wanted to see if it would actually work. And it did! So look below on how to make a Mandarin Orange Cake in a coffee mug.

Materials:
  • 1 box Angel food cake mix
  • 1 box orange cake mix
  • Non-stick spray
  • Water
  • 1 can of mandarin oranges
  • Cool whip

Steps:
  1. Mix the two cake mixes together in a gallon Ziploc bag and shake it to mix the powders together.
  2. Coat the inside of the mug with the non-stick spray.
  3. Put 3 tablespoons of the cake mix into the mug. Then add 2 tablespoons of water and mix it together. Finally add a few mandarin oranges and mix it again.
  4. Put the mug in the microwave for 50 seconds on high.
  5. When the cake is cooled, add a few extra oranges and top it off with some cool whip.  
     Ta-da! This is the final product! It turned out pretty well. The cake was light and fluffy and the oranges were a nice twist from traditional cakes. This recipe is great for when you don't want to make an entire cake. It's also super easy to make, it took me less than 5 minutes to make this recipe. It makes for the perfect treat when you're craving something sweet!
