Desserts in a Mug Mixes Make Unique “Thank You” Gifts (an Excerpt from the Book)

The following project is an excerpt from the "Gift Ideas" Section of the Easy Microwave Desserts in a Mug cookbook:

Need a fun gift for a friend or co-worker? Place a bag of Chai Tea Latte Mix in a mug that is lined with colorful tissue paper. Attach a bow to the handle. Write the cooking instructions on a card and attach to the handle or tuck inside the mug. Add a sign that says, “Thanks a Latte!”. Print it on cardstock, cut it out and tape to a straw or wooden skewer and place inside the mug.
