I am watching the chatter about the cake resipe...soem of the smartest

hardest working women are on this list..some of whom I have had the honor of

working together in person over heady issues of advocacy..women who hav

challenged the state and its godawful status quo.... the smile and laugh I

have gotten from all of you today is the five minute cake. We are all about

the cake. When life hands us s___ and we have used our good brains until

they crisp..we grab the chocolate. We reason it is healthy because it has

an egg...we polish it off because after all..dont ant it around for

tomorrow. I am now rooting for a truffle...or sangria. cindi

Just got back from visiting a new toffee store in the neighborhood...they

encouraged sampling...boy do I have a stomach ache...though I am seriously

thinking about that chocolate cake in a mug...

This is way more fun to discuss than the State being broke, Howe closing (or

not) and union busting...

It almost makes me feel like I have a " normal " life...whatever that is...

Thanks, , for getting us all in a nice, mellow, holiday mood!

I suppose you could add a spoonful of coarse cut oatmeal for some crunch and

maybe it would soak up the cholesterol if you use a real egg

Fw: 5 min. chocolate cake

There are times - working with this state - that chocolate IS the onlyanswer!

This is dangerous! It is not even 8:00 in the morning, I've been on the

computer for a while, and I was wondering what I would have for breakfast!!

I found out it is best to use a big soup mug

THE 5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE CAKE FOR ONE PERSON

?

?

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons flour

4 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons cocoa

1 egg

3 tablespoons milk

3 tablespoons oil

3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional??? ??)

A small splash of vanilla extract

1 large coffee mug (MicroSafe)

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.

Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

Pour in the milk and oil and mix well..

Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.

The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!

Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

EAT ! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous). WHAT?

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?

Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of

the day or night!

healthy. Ah, Kahlua...

I tried this this evening OH MY GOSH! I've been trying to calorie hoard--saving

them up for the weekend--but this blew it! Thank you and chocolate is answer,

whatever the question. And a glass of wine. Or two.

Ok! I am printing the recipe and hanging it on the kitchen cabinet for quick

and easy reference. I am guessing my non-cook hubby might be the first to try

it...hopefully he won't blow up the microwave...

Sadly, I always have all of these ingredients in the house...
