INGREDIENTS
* 3 tablespoons butter, softened
* 1/4 cup white
sugar
* 1 egg
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1/4 cup
milk
* 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
* 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
* 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
* 1 pinch
salt
DIRECTIONS
1. Spray a medium microwave-safe pan with non-stick spray and set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter,
sugar, egg, vanilla extract, and
milk; blend together. Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and
salt; blend into the mixture until smooth. Pour into greased pan.
2. Cover and
cook in the microwave on high for about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, or until
cake springs back when touched. Since all microwaves
cook differently, adjust the
cooking time to accommodate your machine. To serve, let the
cake cool five minutes, then cover the pan with a plate and turn both pan and plate upside down so the
cake falls onto the plate.
Let cool before frosting although this is good even without frosting. Try a piece with some vanilla ice cream.
