Ah yes. Microwaved chocolate cake, such a classic dessert dish.
If I can bake a cake using a 60watt lightbulb in an EZ Bake Oven, I can bake one in a microwave. Heat is heat.
3-2-1 Mug Cake is a thing, and it's pretty decent. That said, assuming they're real food at all, none of those three things on the cover ever saw the inside of a microwave, LOL.

There are many cake recipes for the microwave, it's actually easier than one might think. And most of them are pretty damned good, if you get the heating to be even. You can even get a good crust with some tricks.
Once upon a time people got really creative using microwaves to cook food. You'd be amazed at some of the truly delicious stuff you can cook using a microwave.
Turning the power down and increasing the time is the real secret to microwaving. Keeps the food from hotspotting
warming a cake with a microwave makes it legit good
