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.”

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.)
