I made an “Easter” (read: excuse for using all of the sprinkles and food coloring in the house) cake with Fruity Pebbles in it (read: I am an AWESOME and NUANCED chef) and just realized—
Cereal. There’s cereal in and around it.
Therefore this cake may be resurrected as breakfast in a totally legit fashion.

Seven to eight hours is indeed too long to microwave a cake. Seven MINUTES is long enough to start the whole thing smoking and incite a half hour of frantic fanning with a dish towel praying “Please not the fire department AGAIN please please.”
Three minutes. You can microwave half a box of cake mix in a bowl in the microwave in three minutes.
Now isn’t THAT the most dangerous news you’ve ever heard?
Oh, and since it’s Easter, I suppose it’s a ReBirthday Cake.
(Confession though, I think I might be too old for fake pink frosting. It’s kind of…muchtoomuch? I never thought I’d see the day. This might have to go across the hall to the nice MP.)
So how long should i microwave this cake for? Like seven, eight hours?
This is clearly one of the best ideas I’ve had in recent memory.
Look out Tang-era housewives. Immabout to make a mess.
Now the question: is it possible to make cake in a microwave? I’m sure there’s a Joy of Touch Button Cooking around here somewhere…
What am I saying, I’m sure I’ve had worse ideas. This should probably happen.
(Vegan retrofit: 1/4 c. applesauce, a pinch of baking powder, and 1 tsp. oil makes 1 egg. Magic.)
