Dangerous Chocolate Cake Recipe

Irish Eyes, 24 February, 2009 at 12:01 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 7

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

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

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 (high). 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!

    My H found this on a blog and has been obsessed with them ever since, he experiments with different sauces at the bottom of the mug.

    MrW attempted it for me on Valentine's day. It was actually really nice.

    I have a picture, which doesn't make it look very nice, but it was. We had it with vanilla icecream.

    I made this last week and thought it was vile - all rubbery and heavy. Much better to pop the mix in the oven and have a decent cupcake!

    Just made it! My microwave is only 850watt though so I gave it another 30 seconds, and I don't think it needed that as it's a bit dry.
