5 minute chocolate cake. ^^

[Gelka]

This is a cool recipe I got from my aunt for a chocolate cake. It only takes 5 minutes to make!!! I thought it tasted okay but, if any of y'all ever decide to make it I recommend adding just a bit more sugar than it calls for. ^^




4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract
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!

[Gelka]

It is a lot of fun to make. ^^ .....you just may want to add some chocolate chips to make it taste better......
It tastes um like something you'd cook in a microwave. ^^ Y'all make think otherwise....I guess I'm just picky.....

[Tsukuyomi]

Did someone say cake O.O?

I'm not a fan of making things in a microwave (it's made for nuking things), but that does sound cool 8D

Mina, Corrie, tell me how it taste 8D~~~

[~darkelfgirl~]

Oh wow. This is the greatest thing since sliced bread! Wait--this beats sliced bread!

My mom made this the other day! I didn't try it, but she said it was really good. Though she said it was better with icecream

[Gelka]

It probably is. Unfortunately at the time we made it we had none. Oh well....

[Smile:)]

Most things are better with ice cream... o.o
This sounds yumy! =) I wanna try it! =3

Tried it, and made a few modifications. I used a small bowl instead of a mug, added more chocolate chips and sugar, and it turned out pretty well. The cake was slightly bland though, so I would recommend eating ice cream with it. Maybe add some cinnamon? I'll have to try that out next time.

Wow...that is pure epic win...I think I'm going to try that...

[Gelka]

Wow, I'm gonna have to try what you suggested Shade.

[uydutx]

seems like something I've gotta try out aswell. :)

thanks for sharing the recipe! now I already know what I'm gonna do tomorrow after sleeping in as late as possible. ;)

[Gelka]

Gelka likes sharing recipes! ^_^ I prob will be posting many more recipes in the near future.

[Fantasy Dreamer]

Ooo, nice idea. 'Cause who wouldn't want to make cake in a short amount of time? XD

I might try it someday... maybe, maybe not. I've not really modified recipe's to make them taste good, though, so Idk if I can manage that. :/

[ADXC]

Cool recipe. I'll have to try this.

My friends and I discovered this recipe in a random magazine the other day and tried it right away. It is a bit bland and quite dense/compact -we didn't have chocolate chips- so I suggest definitely putting those in and possibly adding some icing sugar or having t with ice cream. It's still pretty good for cake made in 5 minutes.
