  5. Place the cake pan on a baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  6. Remove to rack and allow to cool.
  7. In another small bowl, add the coconut oil, powdered sugar and vanilla.

Notes
A 3-2-1 cake combines 1 angel food cake mix with 1 standard cake mix in a large zip top bag. Then you simply place 3 tablespoons of cake mix in a microwave safe coffee mug, add 2 tablespoons of cold water, mix and microwave it for 1 minute.
