All-in-one microwave cake
- Servings:
- One 18cm cake
Introduction
Just like the name, all the ingredients are added at once. This is great if you need a cake in a hurry – if you don’t have time to let it cool sprinkle icing sugar on top and serve warm. If it is cool, split in half and fill with chocolate butter cream icing, then spread some more on top.
Cook’s Note
This cake can be made in a food processor. The sponge makes an excellent base for a chocolate trifle. The recipe was tested in a 900w microwave, adjust cooking times to suit wattage of microwave being used.
