Dangerous Chocolate Cake-In-A-Mug
My Aunt emailed me this recipe a few days ago, my daughter and I tried it out a little while ago. It isn't too bad at all.We experimented with adding some salt and baking soda to the second mug we mixed. The additions improved the flavor but it made the cake spill over the edge of the mug and make a bit of a mess in the microwave. It tastes fine without the salt and baking soda, but better with. Our additions were 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, mixed in with the dry ingredients.
We also topped the cake with a spoonful of carmel glaze.
DANGEROUS CHOCOLATE CAKE-IN-A-MUG

4 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. cocoa
1 egg

Small splash of vanilla

Put mug in microwave, and cook for three minutes on 1000 watts.
Cake will rise over top of mug--do not be alarmed!

(This can serve two if you want to feel slightly more virtuous.)
***And WHY is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only five minutes away from chocolate cake any time of the day or night!!!***
A Wonderful, Fun Dessert
My youngest daughter and I made this delicious Pizza Cookie for dessert a few nights ago. Very tasty and very easy to make:
The crust is chocolate chip cookie dough, baked and cooled. Add one cup of sweetend whipped cream, 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts, 1/2 cup toasted sweetend, shredded coconut and 1/4 to 1/2 cup of M&M's. Slice the same as you would a pizza and serve. 12 servings.
