One more day until I can indulge in all things unhealthy, without feeling any guilt about my choices. While most people indulge on cakes, pies, and cookies on their birthdays, I will be having a cheeseburger, fries, and a beer. Or a few beers. Why limit myself?
But for those of you that want to indulge in a little cake every now and then, you should try making a “3-2-1 cake.” I am by no means the genius behind this amazing little piece of heaven, but I did come up with a cute way to gift it to others. Who doesn’t want their own serving of cake?
Start with one box of Angel Food cake, and one box of cake mix (any kind your little heart desires). Mix the dry mixes together in a large bowl and store the mixture in a Ziploc bag (it’ll last for a long while).
I used baby food jars, spray painted the tops to give it a little more color. Measure three tablespoons of mix into each jar. Save and print the tags below, then tie them onto your jars for a fun gift! One tag has instructions, but if you choose to use the other tag, your recipient needs to take the mix from the jar, mix with two tablespoons of water, and microwave for one minute. Be sure your container is microwave-safe before heating!
Happiest Birthday to You!!! Enjoy your cheeseburger and beers – I would go that route too! ; ) XO
Thank you so much! Both were amazing!!!
This is a cute idea for a little treat for E, since she is always asking to make cake. Now we don’t have to make a huge cake and waste half of it. I’ll have to get some jars and keep some in the cupboard.
E will love it! She can feed it to her Lion too.
