I wanted to bake a cake and I have a microwave oven. Can someone please let me know if I can bake a cake in it and how?

You certainly can prepare cake-like foodstuff in the microwave. One such application is a sponge cake. These are quick and easy, though you'll be hard-pressed to make something that's not just a poor substitute for the real thing.

That being said, cook one of these up and drop it on a plate with some fresh fruit and maybe some whipped cream and you'll have an instant dessert.

This LifeHacker article suggests:

  • 1/4 cup melted butter (50 g)
  • 1/4 cup sugar (50 g)
  • 1/2 cup flour (50g)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons milk
