Title: Cake Baking In Microwave
Ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup cocoa powder
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1/4 cup vegetable oil
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips for an extra decadent touch to your cake batter.
5. Grease a microwave-safe cake pan or dish with a little oil or butter to prevent sticking. Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
6. Place the cake pan in the microwave and cook on high for about 5-6 minutes. Cooking times may vary depending on your microwave’s wattage, so keep an eye on the cake as it bakes.
7. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, your cake is ready.
8. Once the cake is done, remove it from the microwave and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
9. Feel free to dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar, cocoa powder, or add a dollop of whipped cream for a finishing touch.
And there you have it! A delicious and moist microwave-baked cake that’s ready in a flash.
