Recipe by:

"Chocolate cake you can make in 5 to 10 minutes! For what it is it is really good cake, and it's great if one of the kids is begging for dessert. Or if you're just craving something chocolate. One trick I found out is add chocolate wherever you see possible."

Footnotes

  • Cook's Note:
  • To get half an egg, just beat the egg separately so the yolk and the whites are mixed, and then pour half of this mixture into the dry ingredients. Because of the half egg, its usually best to make two at once; cook at 3 1/2 minutes.
  • White sugar can be used in place of the brown sugar. Regular milk can be used in place of the chocolate milk.

This recipe seemed perfect but didn't turn out so. I followed the direction and got a fluffy cake mixture that didn't really taste like anything at all. Needed to be sweeter.
