Directions
Microwave Chocolate Snack Cake, This is sooo easy and really quite yummmy It is also nice for small families, because it only makes a small cake The recipe originally came from Taste of Home and they used a 700 watt oven to test the recipe Mine is a 900 watt and you just have to adjust the time a bit to accomodate your microwave the first time you make it , Surprisingly tender and tasty for a microwave cake! I only made the cake not the sauce, and cut sugar back to 1/2 cup since I prefer things less sweet I also upped the cocoa to 1/3 cup ‘cuz I love me some dark chocolate! You’re right about adjusting the cooking time – only took 4 5 minutes in my microwave Yummy and quick, thanks for posting the recipe I bet it would be good as a white cake too if cocoa was omitted – and maybe topped w/ berries for shortcake – Mmmm , My in-laws gave me a microwave to replace mine that had konked out and used this recipe to make a ‘thank you’ cake (since it was made in my present!) 😉 My kids (ages 8 & 9) actually did most of the work, which shows how easy it is All of the chocoholics in the family loved it Super easy and fast! I baked it for 5 1/2 minutes in the 1100 Watt microwave, in case that’s helpful to anyone!
