Chocolate Cake in a Mug

This fun idea came from my sister.  She is always so clever!  My kids LOVED them!

CAKE MIX:

• 1 package (18.25 ounces) chocolate cake mix
• 1 package (4 servings) instant chocolate pudding mix

GLAZE MIX:

• 2-2/3 cups confectioners' sugar
• 1/4 cup powdered cocoa mix

1. In a large bowl, combine the dry cake and pudding mixes; blend well with a whisk.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar and cocoa mix.
3. Divide the cake mix evenly into 8 small plastic bags, about 1/2 cup each; seal and label "Cake Mix." Do the same with the glaze mix, packing about 1/3 cup mix in each bag; seal and label as "Glaze Mix."
4. Set aside to make individual microwave Fudgy "Cup" Cakes (below) any time you want, or pack the mixes to give as gifts (below).

Making a Fudgy "Cup" Cake: Spray the inside of a microwave-safe mug generously with nonstick cooking spray. Pour prepared bag of cake mix into the mug. Add 1 egg, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and 1 tablespoon water. Mix until all the ingredients are combined. Microwave at 100% power for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, place prepared bag of glaze mix in a small bowl and add 1-1/2 teaspoons milk; mix well then pour glaze over the mug cake immediately after removing it from the microwave. Serve cake warm in the mug.

Giving Fudgy "Cup" Cake Mix as a Gift: Place 1 sealed cake mix bag and 1 sealed glaze mix bag into a microwave-safe mug, and attach the recipe for making a Fudgy "Cup" Cake (above).
