Notes | FAQ

- The cake is cooked in a Microwave oven and not conventional oven.
- Since each microwave is different and the size of cup you might use as well. So the time to microwave could vary and can be anywhere from 1 minute to 2 minutes. Keep looking constantly and turn off the microwave as soon as you feel the cake is done. For me it took around 1 min 30 secs.
- Do not microwave for more time than needed. Your cake will become dry.
