Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix, prepared according to package directions
- 1 teaspoon red food coloring
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 1 jar cream cheese frosting
- 3 pint-sized canning jars
Instruction
Step 1: Thoroughly wash and dry the inside of each canning jar. Spray the inside of each jar thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
Step 2: Stir the red food coloring into the prepared cake batter.
Step 3: Spoon about 1 cup of cake batter into each jar. Cook one jar at a time in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until the cake is cooked through.
Step 4: Allow jars to cool slightly, then scoop the top half of cake from the jar. Spoon a tablespoon or so of Nutella into the center of the jar, top with a dollop of cream cheese frosting, then replace the top half of the cake back in the jar, add another layer of Nutella, then enough frosting to fill the rest of the jar.
Step 5: Serve immediately or cover with a lid and store in the fridge. Cakes should stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.
