5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons sr flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa pwd,
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons veg oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract or ess
1 large coffee mug (MicroSafe)

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 extract,
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.
EAT ! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

I shared mine with my friends cause if I'm gonna get fat they are too.

I like chocolate, I don't like chocolate cake. I like hot chocolate, I don't like chocolate milkshake. I have issues with chocolate.

Jem, any cake that can be made in 5 mins would have a detrimental effect on my health. You must have some will power. :)

The Choccy Cake Sonnet

If you wanna AB choccy cake, then this is how you should begin;
Take a half a pound of sugar, same of ttfn's butter, fold it in.
Four large eggs will then need breaking, each in Sqad turn but fairly quick,
Jemma, Keep it beating with a mixer 'til it looks like baby sick.
Now six ounces of self raising Jogger Hayne (backing powder mixed in flour)
Sieved with two of fat free em10 cocoa, beat it all at highest Ed power.

Pre-heat oven, Lore, gas mark 4, three fifty Factor Fahrenheit to you,
Line your cake tins, grease proof paper, Ummmm ladle in the lovely goo.
Twenty minutes, maybe longer, until a mcfluff skewer comes out clean.
Turn out on a rack for cooling, greatest AB cake you've ever seen.
We should ice it (some say Ron frost it) butter cream will go on first;
Stoke Butter mixed with Maveric icing sugar, it's a skill we've all rehearsed.

Finally make some Mamya glacé icing, feather ice until it's Boo nice
Ask me round to come and eat it, you'll never need to ask me twice

My first attempt was not good I then realised my microwave was only 850ww
so 2nd attempt was good because I left it in another 30 secs.

Sometimes some people don't know the capasity of their m/wave so it can cause a prob for them.

Was it cooked all the way through or did it have a gooey centre?

[Ratty2E]

I'm trying it now...............................

[Ratty2E]

Just over 3 mins in my 700w microwave and it certainly looks and tastes like chocolate cake....Mmmmmmm. Just one thing the chocolate chips all sank to the bottom and melted in a gooey mess but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Anyway gotta go now and eat cake :o) Thanks Jem

[marval]

Sounds lovely jem

[Jemisa]

Mercy, mine was ok the second time, no gooey mess. I had no choc flakes but it was fine without.

PS: i didn't use sugar, I used half the amount of sweetener pwd. (2 tbls)
