A cake that is a pudding! A super single-serve,
Really delicious comfort-food that all of us deserve.
When first I saw this recipe I upped and shouted 'Wow!
This is the cooking hint for me! I'm making it right now!'
Double these instructions if you're cooking this for two
Or if you need a double dose for you and.....well.....for you!
For one you'll need a generous mug for cocoa, sugar, flour,
Mix them together with a fork, and a bit of elbow-power.
Then add the egg and mix the lot until it's smooth as silk,
Then add a dash of vanilla and, finally, the milk.
Well, forget about finality if you're adding chocolate chips!
But, remember this, they may all end up settling on your hips!
Put the mug in the microwave for three minutes, thereabout,
And watch it going round and round as though on a roundabout!
The cake (or pudding) soon will rise and may overflow a bit,
Don't worry! It was not designed to be a perfect fit!
Now you have a choice to make; should you eat it hot
Or let it cool and turn it out before you eat the lot?
The supermarket shelves are stocked with puddings at a price.
Try this cheap alternative, you'll find it's just as nice!
Ingredients
1 coffee mug. 4 Tbsp. plain flour. 4 Tbsp. sugar. 2 Tbsp. cocoa. 1 egg.
3 Tbsp. milk. 3 Tbsp. oil. Small splash of vanilla. ( 3 Tbsp. chocolate chips,)

Sounds like an interesting and quick recipe. Cool. Love the poem instructions. :-)
You are a delight! thanks for the recipe and the verse. . as well as the V for vaccination.
Happy Wednesday!
Now that's my kind of baking. I must try it after I get the ingredients. Sorry to say, I have a sweet tooth and it needs to be satisfied often. Yes, it has all settled on my hips, but at my ancient age I could care less.
Love this one and I've been wanting to try it, but with four people in the house, been too lazy to do it. Perhaps if I ever have a time when I'm alone, might try it for myself.
Oh! What a lovely single serving dessert idea! Sometimes my love wants such a snack, but neither of us need whole cakes and goodies sitting around the house -- or our waist lines!
The poem is grand, I hope the recipe is just as tasty!
Yum! This looks sooo good. I am going to try it! (...and it all ends up on my hips anyhow!)
Luv how you turned even a recipe into poetry!
(:
This is a great recipe, someone blogged it and my grandchildren love to make it. It's so quick, cheap and easy.
I have to say I use a small basin and my grand daughter calls it a chocolate sandcastle!
Sounds delicious.

As usual, a great poem.
