Mini Gateau au Chocolat in the Microwave
- 1 Milk chocolate
- 20 grams Butter
- 10 grams Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 30 grams Pancake mix
- 1 tbsp Cocoa powder
- 1 dash Vegetable oil (to grease the molds )
- 1 Powdered sugar
- 1 Cocoa powder
- Break up the chocolate bar with your hands, and put it in a heatproof container with the butter.
- Microwave for 1 minute or so at 600 W.
- Mix up the Step 1 combination with a whisk.
- Add the sugar, egg, pancake mix and cocoa powder and mix well.
- Grease a petit gateau mold meant for microwave cooking (or small cupcake molds etc.)
- with vegetable oil, and spoon in the Step 2 batter.
- The batter will rise when cooked, so just fill each cup or mold about halfway through.
- Hold the mold with both hands and tap it against the countertop several times to eliminate air bubbles.
- Put the filled molds in the microwave one at a time, and bake for about 2 minutes at 600 W while checking for doneness.
- Leave in the microwave for 2 minutes afterwards, then take the mold out.
- If the mold you are using has very small compartments and each one holds just a little batter, microwave for about 90 seconds while checking for doneness.
- If the batter looks uncooked, microwave for another 20 seconds or so.
- When cooking the 2nd batch, the microwave will be warm already, so cook it for a bit less time than the first batch.
- When the cakes have cooled, take them out of the molds.
- Optionally sprinkle with powdered sugar or cocoa powder to taste.
