Have you seen this recipe? I have no idea who originated it (I found it in a church cookbook I received for Christmas, and also several places online), but I think they're a genius. I mean, a 5 minute, from scratch, microwavable, chocolate cake, easy enough for an eight year old to make - who wouldn't love that?
5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake
- 4 T. flour
- 4 T. sugar
- 2 T. cocoa
- 1 egg
- 3 T. milk
- 3 T. oil
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (some versions say these are optional, but really!)
- splash of vanilla extract
- 1 large microwave safe mug.
Mix all the ingredients together in the mug, adding the chocolate chips last.
Place the mug in the microwave for 3 minutes on high. Allow to cool a little, and enjoy.
You can eat it straight out of the cup, or tap it out onto a plate, and share it with a friend. 
Oh, and if you're mug is large, but not So I Married An Ax Murderer large, the cake might rise over the top, but that's okay, too.
It's great to be a homeschooler.
