5 Minute Recipes: Chocolate Cake

          I was thinking today because I wasn’t sure what I was going to post today, but I finally came up with this idea of doing a segment of 5 minute meals. So for the next little bit I’m going to post a new 5 minute recipe every week :)

          Week number one: 5 Minute Chocolate Cake. This recipe is a recipe that has been making its way to every recipe site. It’s obviously popular so I decided to check it out. Here’s the recipe:

Ingredients:

-4 Tbsp Flour

-4 Tbsp Sugar

-2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder

-1 Egg

-3 Tbsp Milk

-3 Tbsp Oil

          To make this recipe, you get one mug, and mix the flour, sugar, and cocoa together. Then you mix in the egg, milk, and oil. After that you microwave it for 3 minutes, take out of the microwave and let sit for a couple of minutes, tip onto a plate or bowl and PRESTO!! C’est magnifique! I actually tested this recipe and it’s really good. It looks a little strange but it’s a chocolate cake. This is Chelsea Approved. ENJOY!

Vinilla cake

          Vanilla cake is a delicious flavour sensation that is one of the easiest recipes you can make when baking a cake. I found this amazing recipe a little while ago and I think it is finally ready for you guys. The recipe is:

2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1 cup milk
3/4 cup oil (or butter if you have read my substitutions list)
2 1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla

          First cream the sugar, eggs, and oil (butter) together. Beat in the milk, flour, baking powder, and vanilla. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two round pans or one rectangular 9x13 pan. Pour the batter in evenly. Bake for 30 minutes or until a knife stuck in the cake comes out clean.
          Don't forget that you can substitute the oil with butter or margarine. You can also add sprinkles, chocolate chips, or any kind of filling you can think of. Be creative and have fun. As for the icing, mix icing sugar, butter, milk, and vanilla to taste.
