Chocolate cravings cannot be ignored and sometimes you need a chocolate cake but you do not want o go for fancy cake pans or do not have baking ovens. I already shared recipes of few microwave cakes on my website and this one is personally my favorite. I used to make it often late at night when I have chocolate craving and cannot afford to go out. This cake was my support at that time. Although it can be baked in baking oven or even without oven but as i want a quick treat so when i tried it in microwave it turned out great. I recommend to try it once, a very easy, dorm friendly recipe and a treat for kids. The recipe uses very easy to available ingredients and do not over think as what kind of milk is used, or if we can use coffee in it or type of oil. The simple ingredients available in every Pakistani or Indian household can be used in this recipe.
