"Cake" no oven

kittycat204

I told somebody I would make a cake/sharing sweet thing for a work meeting. I would normally make a cake/brownies/etc, however my oven is broken.
Is there anything I can make with a hob/microwave that is medium impressive and can be shared without using bowls eg trifle. I really can't think of anything.

Thanks in Advance.

I'd be melting chocolate with golden syrup and stirring in marshmallows and broken biscuits (digestives/ ginger nuts/whatever you have spare) with sultanas, cranberries, chocolate chips or dessicated coconut (or all of the above) press into a tray lined with clingfilm and chill overnight. Voila: fridge cake. Careful though, it's realllly good with ginger nuts....

I doubt anyone would guess that the salted caramel chocolate torte wasn't baked.

You can make flapjacks in the microwave, but Building With Lego's recipe with ginger nuts sounds just so yuuuuuum!

Here is my recipe for nutty rocky road. ALWAYS goes down a treat with anyone who tries it and not an oven in sight.

Id go with a tray bake of sorts. Just need to melt the choc, butter or syrup to hold it all together. Also super cheap if you make it with a digestive base! Try a malteser tray bake, or one with mint Aero (you still get those right?), and top it with a marble of milk and white choc (melt the two, drizzle both on top and use something pointy to 'drag' the two through each other to make a pretty pattern). Yum!

You can bake cakes in a microwave. Use a glass pyrex dish if you don't have a silicon baking dish.

I googled the words: BBC recipes microwave cake and dozens of recipes came up. This chocolate cake was first on the list and looks easy: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1977663/microwave-chocolate-cake .
