Quick Micro-cake!

hey_nikki

I've recently come across this recipe on HungryGirl website, and have come to love it. Mainly for the simple fact that its a quick, satisfying treat when you can't curb the cravings!

Buy your favourite boxed cake mix. I like chocolate.

1/3cup cake mix (43g or 1/12 of the box)
1/8cup diet soda/pop (1oz or 1 shot glass)

Mix together in microwaveable dish.

Pop in the microwave for 1min - 1min20sec.
Leave cake sit in microwave 1 min after cooking to set.
Do not open the door before letting it set. Cake will deflate if you do so.

Remove from microwave. and TADA! instant chocolate cake.

if you like you could add whipped topping, or low cal pudding as an icing.
Personally I like it plain!

Flavours I like..
chocolate cake mix with diet rootbeer.
vanilla cake mix with diet cream soda.

The diet soda replaces the eggs and oil in the cake mix. Reduces the calories, and makes for a nice moist cake!

I like the method that uses a whole box of mix and 1 can of soda, but this is great when you just need a little snack and not a whole cake! Thanks!

(P.S. Such a great way to use my new kitchen scale! LOL)
