basically a couple of nights ago I made this microwaveable chocolate cake thingy which tasted OK while it was hot but not the nicest when it was cold. when I was making the mixture it looked allot like a chocolate self sauce pudding mixture because obviously it would need allot of moisture to enable it to go in the microwave without becoming too dry so it got me thinking and the next day, I was cooking again. I sort of used it as a base sort of sitting in the back of my mind but also made it up as I went!
it had . . .
1cup SR flour
- 1/2cup castor sagar
- 1/2cup brown sugar
- 1/2tsp baking soda
- 2 eggs
- 1/2cup milk
- 1tbs vanilla essence
- 6-8tbs golden syrup
- 100g butter
- I think that was it . . . . . . . . although I did only do half a batch . . .
all you do is mix the dry and wet ingredients and then mix then together. easy!
then for the "self sauce" part I sprinkled about 1-2tbs brown sugar over the cake and melted about 1-2tbs golden syrup into 1/2cup of hot water. I then slowly poured it over and put it into the oven until golden brown. Ok so it did look a bit caved in when it came out - I think I got it out to soon but it looks perfect for a row of lightly whipped cream! any way, it tasted good . . . I would really like to try it in small individual serving things as I think that would look really cute . . . you know the type??
