Hands up who thought cake in a mug wouldn't work

Yeah I can see you! Yes! You! You didn't think cake in a mug in 5 minutes would work. Well to be honest, neither did I really...so I tried it myself. Have a look...





How did it taste? Like a really yummy chocolate cake actually! Not exactly light, but still a dense, rich and delicious cake! Fully decorated with icing, cream etc and it wouldn't have been any different from buying a supermarket cake.

On to the next one...

Chocolate cake in 5 minutes

I love cake. You love cake. Why? because it's fucking amazing.

It's about 4pm and you're slap bang in the middle of the post lunch/pre-dinner limbo. You want a snack, but all you've got on your desk is an apple and some nuts. BOR-RING.

You want cake. You want a moist piece of chocolate cake and nice cup of tea to boost your sugar levels and make you a happy bunny.

But you just don't have time to bake a cake. It takes too long. You're too busy doing whatever it is you do. Plus, you can't afford/be bothered to go out and find a nice patisserie and buy a slice of cake for about £3/4!

What if I was to tell you you could have some delicious homemade chocolate cake in just 5mins time? You'd think I was a mental. Well you'd be WRONG!
