Notes
Spray a coffee mug with cooking spray. Empty one cake mix packet into the mug; add the egg white, oil, and 1 tablespoon water; mix thoroughly, scraping the bottom corners. Microwave on HIGH 2 minutes. Stir 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons water into one glaze packet until smooth and pour over the warm cake.
Gift tag idea: add the egg white, oil, and water, then microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes.
Storage: dry packets sealed, airtight, cool and dry, use within about 6 months; leftover cake refrigerated, 3 to 4 days; mix glaze right before using.
