Hi,
Well, I just gave it a try.
It's actually not bad. If this were to be made while camping, it would of course be almost excellent, as everything tastes better outside. And warm chocolate cake would be quite a treat. Especially with ice cream, or whipped cream.
Thanks for the recipe!
(Hmmmm I wonder what else can be mixed up in a cup and microwaved???)

1 tablespoon hot fudge topping and 2 teaspoons of caramel topping

Tried original post recipe this trip.

And while I do not care much for chocolate everyone else enjoyed it.

It came out a unique consistency, comparable to a chocolate sponge cake.
