Need the 60 Sec Chocolate Cake in the Dots Mug Recipe :O)

[riggs62]

This is from memory......someone help a girl out :chef:

Chocolate cake mix and instant chocolate pudding mix in a ziploc....shake violently.....
1 cup mix
1 egg
1/4 c oil
mix in the mug
Microwave 60 seconds...

Is that correct?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it is only 1/2 cup of mix and 1 tbsp oil and 1 Tbsp water. Mine always take a little over 1min.

Anyone else? I'll see if I can look it up to be sure...

I checked, and this is right.

The 60-second cake!

Make a master mix to keep in your cupboard for chocolate emergencies. In a large zip top baggie combine one box of chocolate cake mix and one box of chocolate pudding mix.

When needed – take 1/2 cup of the mix and put it in our Simple Additions Coffee & More mug. Mix with 1 Tbsp of water, 1 Tbsp of oil and one egg.

Microwave on high for 60 seconds and enjoy your chocolate fix!

Oh, and you can put a dollop of (non-whipped) frosting on the top too before nuking it. It sinks to the bottom. If you do it in a greased glass bowl like I do, you can turn it out. I do this for dessert for my family. Might have to make 2 batches now the kids are getting bigger!

Where on earth did I get 1/4 cup oil?!? GROOSSS
Thanks everyone!!!!

one box of chocolate cake mix and one box of chocolate pudding mix.

is the pudding regular or instant?

 

[Laura420]

oh, and... can I use the SA small bowls instead? I dont have the mugs...

is the pudding regular or instant?

Originally I thought it was NOT instant - but, it doesn't matter.

they might be really hot to touch w/o the handle

 

[Laura420]

thanks linda, youre the best!

 

[Laura420]

has anyone ever used vanilla pudding and white mix?

 

[AnnieBee]

Not personally, but you can do any combo that sounds good to you.

I cook mine in a large cereal type bowl (now I have the small batter bowl, I'll probably use that). It does come out hot, but I grease the bowl and turn it out onto a plate, so it doesn't really matter.

 

[Laura420]

:grumpy: urgh - I was just so going to make this right now... but all I have is brownie mix!

 

[Ann F]

OK. I'm confused. Is this in the Dots mug, the big white mug, or the small batter bowl?

 

[AnnieBee]

My understanding is that it is done in the coffee and more cups, but I don't have them, so I use a big cereal bowl, and am going to try it in a small batter bowl now I have one!

 

[Laura420]

should I try it in the small SA bowls... ??? do you think it will overflow?

 

[AnnieBee]

I think it might... you could split it and do half in each one, and cook it for less time...

 

[Laura420]

I made the chocolate one this morning in a regular small pyrex bowl. I hadda cook it for 80 sec though?? It was okay... not very mosit... but I guess it would satisfy a craving if I had one. I used the basic recipe, no icing in it. I cooked it for 80 sec cuz there was a "wet" spot on top at the 60 and 70 sec mark... oh well. Maybe next time I will add the icing.

I made it yesterday at my daughter's. We fixed two mugs (cooked them one at a time) and micro'd for 60 seconds. One had a scoop of frosting and the other didn't. They both turned out good. I love that recipe. There is a BIG difference in microwaves - so some might take more time, some less. Trial and error I guess. ~Kay

Speaking of microwave ovens.....at a show this summer I made warm nutty caramel brownies. The host's micro was not touch-pad, it had dials on it. I asked the host if that dial was minutes or seconds and I swear she said "seconds". So I put my chocolate chips in there and set it for 30 seconds and then went back to doing something else. Pretty soon we smelled the most AWFUL smell!! Yep, I had set the chips to cook for 30 MINUTES. YUK YUK YUK. That was the last of her choc chips, so she found a Hershey bar and I melted that. This time I watched it to make sure I didn't burn it
