If you click through to embiggen you can probably see the recipe. I don't bother with all the creaming of the butter and sugar and gradual adding of egg and crap, I just use the all in one method:
Stick the Breville on to preheat.
Grab:
50g softened butter
50g caster sugar
50g self-raising flour
1 egg
Vanilla Extract
Stick it in an appropriate vessel, whap it till smooth, divide it up between the depressions in the Breville (you need to do this bit quite quickly so the bottoms don't burn), close the lid, leave for 3 minutes, remove from Breville, eat.
This is an easy thing to do when drunk and craving cake, as you can probably tell from the formatting of this entry. Am tempted to go make another set...
Variations: You need to use quite strongly flavoured things to make a difference to these. Ones I have tried and liked include zest of one lime, some cinnamon, and some ginger. I wouldn;t use much of anything liquid.
