Found this last night and tried it!

It's really good.

With a shortage of flour,eggs,sugar this is fun and cures a sweet tooth!

THANK YOU. I have been out of eggs for some time and also out of anything chocolate in the house. Broke down and made a chocolate pie this afternoon, but very time consuming. When I want chocolate I want it now.

The mayo contains the eggs and oil.  You can also put some cake mix in a mug, add about 2 tsp oil And enough water to make it cake batter consistency.  Microwave about 1 1/2 min or until done.

There is a 3-2-1 cake mug, I got the recipe from WW. You mix a box of your favorite cake mix with a box of Angel Food cake mix ( must be Angel Food). In an oversized mug mix 3 TBS of the mix ( level it off), 2 TBS of water, mix,  microwave on high for 1 minute ( keep your eye on it, you can add seconds to it if you want). The cake is 3 points.

We have a huge chocolate fix at home. Not running out of chocolate. LOL!!!

Russell Stover sent me a 25% off coupon so I placed an order. My order went who knows where so they shipped out another order. I ended up with 2 orders. I need to call them to tell them to charge me for both orders. I don't feel right not paying for both? I thought they were going to have the other order directed back to them.

Saw and wanting to try! Glad to see a review from someone who has. I have some really old cocoa powder, but I think it might still work!

I tried this mayo recipe and it was horrible!!!! Didn't cook in 1 minute, so I tried adding 15 seconds then 15 more until it was almost 3 minutes and it was GROSS and a waste of ingredients!!!!

I made this @RACALAMB2 and it was delicious!  However, I am glad I used up all of my mayonnaise on this, otherwise I would be making this every day.  😊

No need to be rude.  The OP was kind to take the time to pass this recipe along.
