Introduction: Lava Disc Cake in Microwave Oven
Sponge cake with chocolate tempered disc? You should try this recipe.
This dish is made with things i had leftover in my home bit it still is worth trying :)
Step 1: Ingredients for Cake
I would suggest you to use complete quantity and not to half them like i did else you would end up with half semi circles...
2 eggs
1cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar powdered
3/4 cup oil
1/2 tsp baking powder
Few drops vanilla ( optional)
Mix egg and sugar until incorporated. Add oil and mix well. Sift flour and baking powder together. Add. Add your vanilla.
I cooked my cake in microwave oven
Preheat oven at 180 Celsius. Bake for 20-25min.
Once cooked let it cool and cut circles ( i used three as my cake thickness was dense.)
Step 2: Nutella Sauce
I made this sauce only for this cake amount. It can be stored easily.
4 teaspoon milk
2 tablespoon nutella
Warm your milk in microwave. Add in your nutella. Mix it well. It sould be in runny constancy.
Serve hot for this cake.
Step 3: Tempered Chocolate Disc
Warm 2/3 part of chocolate at intervals of 10 seconds. Making sure you stir nicely every time.
Once your chocolate has just melted. Add in your 1/3 of remaining chocolate and mix well and quickly. If you feel that your chocolate is too cold that lumps of solid chocolate are visible abd are tough to dissolve, microwave for another 5 seconds. Your chocolate should not be too warm or it will not temper correctly. Spread your chocolate over aluminium foil and pat it to remove air bubbles.
Let it stay at room temperature for atleast 30 min to an hour. Once u can feel that chocolate is not sticking to your fingers but it not firm yet, score circles and place your chocolate sheet in refrigerator. Only take it out before serving.
Step 4: Serving
Place your disc of top of your cold cake and pour warm nutella sauce on top of it . Your dessert is ready

I think you may have a combination convection and microwave oven. There is no way to preheat a conventional microwave, or keep it at a set temperature - you can only vary the wattage.
Try you recipe in someone else's microwave - I don't think that cake mix microwaved for 20 mins is going to turn out like yours!
