Tried it myself, works great! Although i'd add more cocoa (I used drinking chocolate instead) next time round.

If it fails for you:
  • It'll come out different for different microwaves (I did 4mins in ours, where it says 3mins on page).
  • I think (cannot confirm) that American tablespoons are a different size to UK ones (which from reading the comments were used in the original).
  • I used normal flour and it worked fine, no need for cake flour (unless you have it that is).
  • I forgot to stir in the flour/sugar/cocoa, but it was fine, just had to stir it a lot (I just chucked it all in by accident).
  • Oh yeah, stir it till there's pretty much no visible "lumps" (might take 2-3mins alone).
  • And again, you may want to add more cocoa/whatever chocolate powder you use to give it a stronger taste.

Have fun.

I just tried it, but it's fucking hot :(

And one part of it is little black (stupid microwave). But it looks good so far. At least the idea is sure very good.

edit: I suggest to add a few hazelnuts. I think it would be better then.

Come to think of it, it looks like high concentration sulfuric acid and sugar/starch mixed together, then painted with a brownie.

I'm no geek, but I think one of the ingredients have sulfur compounds in it.

w-w-w-w-w-wait? How could that be dangerous?
The ingredients are these of a normal cake. So no danger in there.
And the only other thing is oil. But oil won't get poisonous by heating it up I guess.

Well, artifical compunds with 1 sulfur element in it, as a food nutrient.

Microwaving a drop of oil = Absorbtion of waves = Vibration in the atoms = Produces Heat.

Too much heat = That drop of oil might release 100 KJ worth of heat energy.

I'm fairly certain cooking oil does not contain sulfur.

And it's a cake, who gives a shit, just eat it.

That sulphur, I'm not talking about oil. Some other ingredient in the cake.

(Sulphur or sulfur, which one is correct?)

Sulfur = American
Sulphur = British

Funny, I spelt it the American way, don't think it matters much.

somethign really important if you do this:
It turns really hard really fast. After like 6 hours I couldn't eat it because of that. So eat it fast : P
And also don't keep it in the bowl/mug you made it or it'll stick and you'll have a hard time getting it out.

Sounds interesting. And it does look like a cake, except it doesn't has anything on top of it, as cakes usually have. I'll try this.

On the bottom picture where the guy broke it up, the one piece on the bottom looks like a demon face.

Why don't you just go get yourself a Easy Bake Oven?

Because Easy Bake ovens don't have a chance of leaking terrible radiation everywhere
