3-2-1 Snack Cake

I don't know if you can even call this a recipe, it's that easy.  (Disclaimer: I have not made this yet, but I have seen it and smelled it so I know it works.  Just haven't tasted it.  I will update when I do.)

I'd say this is the perfect kind of snack for the kids to make as it only uses a very few dishes; the mix and water and the microwave.  No HOT ovens.

Have fun with the ingredients and don't spare the Whipped Cream!
