You've probably seen the commercials for these seemingly delicious microwaveable cakes that have the women savoring them in their dark living rooms. The ads are a bit silly, but they do make these cakes look delicious. So of course I tried it (you don't have to ask me twice to try chocolate)!
Unfortunately, I was not very impressed. First of all, the directions to make these "easy" cake were not as advertised. You have to add 1 Tbsp and 1 tsp of water to the mix and stir. Then, squeeze the fudge 10 times before adding to the cake batter. Really? It all just seems unnecessary. The cake did work, and it wasn't awful. But it wasn't tantalizing my taste buds either. It was too complicated and messy for something that was supposed to be fast and easy. However, it is only 150 Calories per serving, so there's a good bonus.
hmmm, well i've never been a fan of chocolate cake, but having to do that much work just seems silly. and what college student wants to do that much work or has a tbsp and a tsp. do you squeeze it in the pkg or on a table or what?
ReplyDeleteI know! The measurements and packaging needed to be much simpler!
