That IS the most dangerous cake recipe in the world.

I think I'ma go make some.

27 Mar 03:51

27 Mar 20:38

I'm so glad I found this right now, I need some comfort food.

28 Mar 00:21

...I just did this, and I am enjoying it now. Even though it goes against the cook in me, I followed your directions and 'nuked my cake. It is a BEAUTIFUL abomination. I didn't think it would work without leavening, but OH MY GODS.

Thank you for posting this.

28 Mar 06:58

I am SO trying this. It sounds great without having to buy those instacake kits from the store.

28 Mar 12:13

Will leaving out the cocoa make it a white cake? I don't have any cocoa but I wanna try this..

28 Mar 16:56

Could I do this without a microwave? (Sounding stupid possibley) because I don't have one. I have an oven though :D

28 Mar 17:48

Oh wow... this cake is delicious! And it makes a lot more than I thought it would. Definitely making more of these for my friends. =D

04 Apr 17:05

I made it. It taste..... Okay....... I guess......Eat it right away...... If you wait to eat it like I did it get all hard and gross. Like a cake that has been sitting out for weeks.

07 Apr 16:57

i just tried to make this.

it didn't work.

08 Apr 19:48

My first try set fire on the inside... or it just burnt but I kept hitting it with a spoon and the smoke wouldn't disperse oO" My second try rose way over the top but tasted okay I guess for being made in five minutes ^_^. It was real fun to try though my mum kept laughing at me and made me clean the mess :( Nice how-to but I'd rather buy an instant cake kit

11 Apr 13:45

I made one, and my dad told me Chris Evans made them on his show recently!!! Cool, huh?!
This is the recipe he suggests, they seem to work :)

Ingredients
• 4 tbs / 45 gms self raising flour
• 4 tbs / 55gms caster sugar
• 2 tbs / 17gms cocoa powder
• 1 egg
• 3 tbs / 43 mls milk
• 3 tbs / 25 mls sunflower oil
• 3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
• A small dash of vanilla extract
• 1 large coffee mug
• Double cream or creme fraiche - optional for serving
Method
1. Add dry ingredients to the mug, and mix well.
2. Add the egg and mix thoroughly
3. Add the milk and oil - mix well (don't forget the corners / edges of the mug).
4. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again
5. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes (in a 1000 watt microwave).
6. The cake will rise above the top of the mug, but don't worry it’s supposed to!
7. Allow to cool a little, tip out onto a plate.

Enjoy!!! xxx

12 Apr 02:22

this is good with cold milk and chocolate sauce too

14 Apr 03:37

Ok i just put mine in the microwave. god i hope it dose not explode

14 Apr 04:55

17 Apr 22:50

Tonight is mommy & Grant night and I am so going to let my 8 year old make this when he gets up. He will love it!

21 Apr 21:07

Oh how I LOVE CHOCOLATE!!!!!

23 Apr 08:13

I made it without the chocolate, and measures 1 Tbsp Vanilla into it. It wasn't bad. Kinda reminded me of a pancake. *Goes off to hunt up a maple syrup frosting recipe*

Oh my flipping goodness! I just tried this recipe and was amazed at how well it turned out. Good work :) I'm going to make this recipe a LOT! :)

25 Apr 05:04

I added corn and docked the sugar a tbs.

26 Apr 07:26

I make this cake - it's fantastic!
I can be a piglet and eat it all myself, or divide it into 2 when cooked & serve up with icecream.
Yummo.
I tried it once with the choc chips - but it didn't taste any different - so I just use extra strong cocoa for that real chocolately taste!

26 Apr 10:38

wow wow wow! so easy to make so problems the first couple of times a little dry but i just didnt cook it as long- added chocolate icing and whipped cream it was beautiful :) cheers

26 Apr 20:13

Just made this, around 45 seconds ago! :P
It turned out great and it tastes very yummy too!
thank you so much :)

02 May 20:14

I am half way through eating this, delicious. I was skeptical at first but wow....dangerous is right

03 May 11:23

Thanks for this intriguing recipe! Just tried to make it using an 800 watt microwave, with mixed success. It was cakey and fairly edible, but dry - probably my fault, as I added an extra 30 seconds cooking time to account for the wattage. I also wonder if the width of the mug makes a difference; mine was tall and narrow, so maybe a wider mug would keep it more moist. I added a bit of cinnamon, which in retrospect may have been a mistake as it interfered with the chocolateyness. I'm definitely going to try again another time (but maybe when there's someone around to help me eat it - it was a bit too much for me to manage on my own)!

03 May 21:10

Just whipped this up and shared with Mom. Besides the obvious goodness that is chocolate it was very fun to just mix up while chatting with Mom. Next time will use heaping tbsp of sugar though...seemed to need just a smidge more. Thanks for posting, and thanks to karma for letting me find it today!! :o)

04 May 02:04

we make this in my house ALLLLL the time an serve it with a dollop of cream- we call it MUGGY CAKE and it is famous around our neighborhood!! we have to keep the ingredients on hand ALL the time now becuase it is the perfect thing to whip up when you're craving a dessert fix!

04 May 20:06

My 11 year old son tried this tonight and it worked! He enjoyed the whole mug-cake himself. Plans for next time: do the mixing outside the mug and pour half / half into two cups - it is quiet a lot for one person.

05 May 19:59

I WANT TO EAT ONE RIGHT NOW!!

06 May 19:23

Mine came out almost soggy and my micowave is 800. Strange.
I think it may have been because i put the milk ontop of the dry ingredients and left it for probably an hour (made dinner)
Will definately try this again :D
Thanks

24 May 21:53

how much oil do you use?

30 May 16:35

I substituted the vanilla extract for a dash of almond extract and i tossed in some dried cherries... in the cooking they get a bit moist and gooey and 100% delicious.... thanks for the posting!!!!!

03 Jun 21:20

04 Jun 00:39

LOL sorry about the last comment. I was amazed by your upside down username. anyways. I LOVED IT. I accidentally cooked it for 30 more seconds. It is a little dry and plain, but for almost $0 and 5 mins it it so worth it.
Next time i will add more normal sugar (not powdered LOL) and top it off with chocolate sauce that was hiding in my fridge when i first made it.

Overall the directions are FAB and i will forever make this... >XD

19 Jun 11:27

just made this for mi mom and we split it and it was delicious especally with a tall glass of milk

19 Jun 11:30

p.s its better with choc. chips

27 Jun 19:08

17 Aug 02:22

SMASHING! Have to make this tonight. thanks for putting up the recipe; I love trying new things!

17 Aug 02:41

IT WORKS! HUZZAH!

17 Aug 02:45

I ran out of regular cocoa so I used an instant hot chocolate packet instead and it turned out great!

17 Aug 20:55

can you use chocolate syrup instead of coca powder?

22 Aug 12:53

Oh this was hilarious. It didn't taste -great-, pretty dry and definitely needed icecream, but it was fun to watch it explode in my microwave, salvage it and polish it off. :P Probably a one time dessert I'd say...Easy to make though! Also ensure you have a giant mug, evidently I was underendowed. :P

And Jocelyn, no that wouldn't work. :(

12 Sep 18:19

anyone know the magazine Cricket? i just got the latest issue and it had this recipe in it!

27 Sep 15:18

Sounds kinda creepy, but I'll have to try it later today. I'll let you know how it worked out. ^^

27 Sep 15:22

Awesome. This will be a very important feature in my life from now on. Thank you!

29 Sep 12:49

Sooo.. I made it a few minutes ago. It was pretty okay, but quite spongy and a little dry. With ice-cream I think it would be a lot better, but not bad like this either. (: Thanks for the recipe!

29 Sep 21:50

Ohh. yummyy. Could I use the swirl milk choclate/white chocolate, chocolate chips, or would it taste to chocolatey?...Chocolate...

30 Oct 21:21

Mmm it's in the microwave now :) I used tablespoons, was that right? There were no measurements so I kind of guessed :/ Still, should be good :))

01 Nov 12:10
