Attention portion controllers: be on the lookout for ways to make a single serving of something you like. Here's one:
Recipe for "3, 2, 1 Cake:"
Ingredients:
1 box - Angel Food Cake Mix
1 box - Cake Mix (Any Flavor)
2 Tbsp - Water
Directions:
In a zip-lock bag, combine the two cake mixes together and mix well.
For each individual cake serving, take out 3 Tablespoons of the cake mix combination and mix it with 2 Tablespoons of water in a small microwave-safe container.
Microwave on high for 1 minute, and voila - enough cake just for you.
Always remember, that one of the cake mixes MUST be Angel Food. The other can be any flavor. The Angel Food is the cake mix that has the eggs whites in it.
Yield: 1 serving
This recipe is called 3, 2, 1 Cake because all you need to remember is: 3 tablespoons mix, 2 tablespoons water, 1 minute microwave!

Thanks for this! I think the single serving idea is brilliant. If I made a whole cake - OY - it would be gone!0 -

I've tried it and didn't like it very much ... very spongy.
Don't see how I could be doing it wrong. Used angel food cake and chocolate cake.
My kids didn't like it at all.0 -
BUMP for later!0

I just tried this after finding the recipe on Pinterest. I loved it!! Yes, it is spongy, but that is from the Angel Food Cake.
Every now & then you just need a little sweet treat & I think this is perfect!!! Enjoy!
**Some tips from others on Pinterest who tried it was to not overly mix it with the water, just lightly, until moist.0 -
Delicious!0

I just tried it and found it a fast, easy, sweet fix ...now whether I would be willing to give up 130 calories on it often is another question0

Tried the 3,2,1 cake and it was awesome...love the fact that you're not adding the oil and egg to the cake mix.0

I have tried this. I had a lady I worked for get this from Weight Watchers. It isn't too bad0

I have tried this with strawberry cake mix. It is really good!!! I plan to do it with chocolate for when I need my chocolate fix. My daughter comes home every day and asks for it as a snack. Her friends love it!! This is without adding anything extra ( cool whip, berries, icecream). Yes it is spongy but you expect that with angel food cake.0

I made this tonight using a pineapple flavored cake with the angel food. It was pretty decent. Next time I plan to heat up a pineapple slice with a teaspoon of brown sugar and eat it together with the 3-2-1. Instant pineapple upside down cake!0
