It's a problem. My sweet tooth, it gets out of control sometimes. While organizing my cook book binder the other night I finally paid attention to this little thing my grandma had put in it before giving it to me.

Can you read that? Yeah it says 5 minute chocolate cake.

Did I make it in a desperate attempt to get some sweet chocolate in my mouth as quickly as possible? Why yes, yes I did.

Here it is fresh out of the ove... microwave! (um if you happen to make this, please learn from my mistake and do NOT under ANY circumstances grab the handle of the mug with a bare hand. You will scream in agony and your husband will wonder what you've gotten yourself into this time.)

Oh goodness!
Analysis: pretty good, if you've got no sweets and a real hankering for some chocolate cake. The texture is different (probably on account of being "baked" in a microwave), and I thought it was a bit eggy (maybe use just the yolk or white?) and it needed more chocolate so probably do heaping spoonfulls of that stuff. I had some left over cream cheese cinamon frosting which I put on and made the whole thing pretty amazing. Dan even liked it (and he's not a sweets man).
Microwaves just got better.
