Wow this looks so delicious! I am always looking for small batch recipes so I don’t end up with an entire cake sitting around!

Oh Thankyou! Have a great day!
Oh my! I think am going t be in trouble!! I just discovered our site and this recipe has me drooling!! Will definitely be giving this a try! TFS!
I just made this tonight and it was delicious! I used semi-sweet chips since that is what I had on hand. I also baked them for 12 minutes instead of 10 and even though it was still yummy, I wish I would have done it for 10. Great easy and fast recipe! Thank you!
I’m currently living in Asia, where both ovens and real western baked goods are a rarity. I can, however, find all these ingredients, and I have a microwave. Do you think this could be made mug-cake style in the microwave?
We haven’t tried this in a microwave oven. If you compare oven and microwave temperature and times it should work.
