microwaveable chocolate cake

Swissarmywife

posted this totally awesome microwave cake recipe. The kids each made their own, with me mostly hands off...just there to read the recipe.

I was hoping to spend 5 minutes on this and be done but Xander requested frosting to go with it and that required some extra time (and dirty dishes).

I made this chocolate frosting recipe and it turned out great.

here's the cake recipe...

* 4 tablespoons flour
* 4 tablespoons sugar
* 2 tablespoons baking cocoa
* 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
* 1 egg
* 3 tablespoons buttermilk (we just used milk)
* 3 tablespoons oil
* dash of vanilla
* you could add some nuts or chocolate chips too

Mix it all up together and cook for 3 minutes in the microwave. voila!

Maybe you could just keep extra frosting in the firdge? My boys suggested whipped cream next time. My husband requested ice cream to go with it. :-)

Zoe:
