Lock In

[mheavrin]

Our small youth group is getting ready to have a lock in later this month. We are planning a scavenger hunt and a scrapbooking session so far. I am looking for other ideas of fun things to do. This is a girls only event and the ages range from 6 to 15. There will probably be only about 10 kids there.

Here are a few ideas. I'll keep looking. Have fun.

MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour (plain flour, not self-raising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips(optional)
a small splash of vanilla
1 coffee mug
I add a bit of salt to bring out flavor

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
