Single Serving Cake

This could either be a good thing or a bad thing depending on who you are. The ability to make a single serving cake does prevent you from eating too much of an entire cake, but it could also mean dessert every night. Your choice :)

This can also be adapted to please anyone and everyone. Hubs loves a good yellow cake with no frosting, which is perfect because I love double frosting! Tonight I made him plain yellow, but I threw some chocolate chips in mine. You could add fruit, frosting, a different flavor cake mix, powdered sugar, caramel sauce.... you get my drift?

Here's all you need per cake:
1/2 cup cake mix
1/3 cup water
1 tsp vegetable oil
Any additional toppings, frostings, fruit, etc.

Mix all of your ingredients into a microwavable bowl and pop it in the microwave for 90 seconds. Only cook one cake at a time. Let it sit for a minute or two afterwards. You might need to microwave it for an additional 10-15 seconds depending on what you included. The addition of chocolate chips caused my cake to need 10 more seconds.

Let it cool for a minute and then dig in!
