DANGEROUS CHOCOLATE CAKE-IN-A-MUG

 By Judy Hutchings

 

 

1 coffee mug

4 Tbsp. cake flour (plain, not self-rising)

4 Tbsp. sugar

2 Tbsp. cocoa

1 egg

3 Tbsp. milk

3 Tbsp. oil

Small splash of vanilla

3 Tbsp. chocolate chips, optional

Add dry ingredients to mug, mix well with a fork.

Add egg, mix thoroughly.

Pour in milk and oil and vanilla, mix well.

Add chips, if using.

Put mug in microwave, and cook for three minutes on 1000 watts.

Cake will rise over top of mug--do not be alarmed!

Allow to cool a little; tip onto a plate if desired.

Eat!

(This can serve two if you want to feel slightly more virtuous.)

***And WHY is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?

Because now we are all only five minutes away from chocolate cake any time of the day or night!!!***

 

Baked Macaroni And Cheese By The Griffiths

 

2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni

1 stick butter or margarine

12 ounces yellow cheddar cheese

4 ounces mozzarella cheese

5 cups milk

salt and pepper to taste

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Layer macaroni, butter, and cheeses in the order given in a 9-by-13 dish.  Pour milk over the top layer.  Bake for one hour.  Do not cover.

 

Tips from our test kitchen:

 

To prevent this dish from becoming too brown and crusty, cover with foil for the last 15 minutes of baking.  Experiment with Swiss, Vermont Chedar, provolone, or other cheeses to add a personal touch.  Garnish with parsley, if desired.
