Description:
THE WORLDS MOST DANGEROUS RECIPE

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


Ingredients:
4 tablespoons Cake Flour (that's plain flour, not self-raising)
4 tablespoons Sugar
2 tablespoons Baking Cocoa
1 Egg
3 tablespoons Milk
3 tablespoons Olive Oil (Extra Virgin Light)
3 tablespoons Chocolate Chips (optional)
1 small splash of Vanilla Essence
1 Coffee Mug or Soup Mug


Directions:
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 Essence, 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.
 Make sure it is a large mug or it will overflow.

both the above important I suspect 1200 watts would need a wee bit less........ but if in too long will dry out.
works fine on my machine but not sure what wattage it is but I do them on full power 3 mins and nice chocholatey centre as I use chips as well ...i use tapered cups of big size and upend onto plate comes out like a choc volcano

Maybe I shouldn't show my kids that recipe.

Do you know that Chocolate Brownie recipe in the Alison Holst Microwave book?

My kids call that pudding and they all can make it.

Son was over weekend before last and raided my recipes for the 'easy' ones. I might email him the chocolate mug cake one, that way there's less dishes as well ;D
