    Place in microwave for no more than three minutes. It will puff up so pretty, but don't be concerned. Watch it, but don't stop it when it starts to puff. This was fun .... kind of like jiffy pop corn in the sixties when we didn't have microwave popcorn. The top would puff up when you heated it! Voila! chocolate cake!Remove and let it stand a few minutes. Then run a knife around it to loosen it. Dump it on a plate. I think it is great hot, and my husband prefers it cold.

    Options for serving: You can split it in half and top with ice cream and whipped cream or chocolate sauce for dessert for two. Or put ice cream between the layers and then fudge and whipped cream for a great hot fudge cake for ONE.(ME).lol
