Five Minute Dessert - Microwavable mini cake

Cooking with Grace presents... the fastest dessert ever! Make it in your microwave using simple ingredients.

Ingredients for one mini cake:

3 tbs plain flour
2 tbs cocoa powder
1/4 tsp baking powder
3 tbs sugar
1 egg
2 tbs milk
2 tbs vegetable oil
Splash of vanilla

Directions:

-Combine first four ingredients together and mix well. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir.
-Spray a wide cappuccino cup with a non-stick spray, or spread a little bit of oil in the cup.
-Add the cake mixture to the cup and cook in the microwave for about two minutes on high.
-Its a nice spongy texture but it can be a little dry, so I suggest adding fruit, icing, ice cream, chocolate sauce, or icing sugar. Serve immediately.

Grab a cup of tea or glass of milk and enjoy!

"careful because it's really hot", yeah well, YOU'RE hot!

That looked delicious! I have to try that sometime. I have seen these fast microwave cake thingies, but you really took it to another level with adding ice cream and bananas!

She didn't say what she used

I made this, did not like it at all. My sister, who is a professional chef, tasted me and spat it out, went all Gordon Ramsey and called it an effing disaster.

We had to add a crap-load nutella, icecream and a mountain of whipped cream to make it edible.

If you're hungry and you want something cake-like and you don't really care about the quality and texture of it, try this.

But if you're looking for something to try and impress your guests, just skip the cake and just give them ice cream.
