The 3-MINUTE CHOCOLATE "CUP" CAKE - A Microwave Miracle Food!

OKAY, I'M SHOUTING because this is just the GREATEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD!

My single, chocoholic, cupcake loving friends this is my gift to you! Yes, this is a real piece of cake, just one piece of cake, made in 3 minutes in your microwave and it's chocolate!

If you're single you will have experienced the same thing as I have - you're craving a piece of chocolate cake, you only want one piece of cake and you don't want to make a trip to the store or a restaurant because you're all tucked up in your jammies already. You graze the fridge looking to satisfy that craving but only a piece of cake will do. It's an age old dilemma and we now have the perfect solution!

I tried it and it's great! It's moist, it's warm from the "oven" and it's a little slice of heaven in a cup! I poured some hot fudge sauce on it and added a dollop of ice cream - next time I'm going to sauce it with some raspberry coulis or fresh fruit. (here's a great recipe for Raspberry Coulis)

Want another tip to make this even faster next time? Grab some baggies and measure out the dry ingredients for one cup cake into each bag then all you have to do the next few times is grab the bag, empty it into a coffee mug and add your liquids and egg!
