Quick, easy and deliciously light. Could cut in half
and sandwich together with chocolate icing. Mixture
almost rose above my ring container. Next time I will use the bundt ring which is larger. Easy peasy!

I would cook the cake in a microwave safe dish! Keep steel tins for the oven and rather use plastic.

Made this cake yesterday WOW WOW WOW what a pleasant surprise. Was so sceptical because the method was so easy, nearly too good to be true but yes I will definitely make it again and again. I topped it with coffee butter icing.
