I've made this cake twice now and it's just a boiling hot liquid....no cake at all. Where am I going wrong?!

Fantastic. I made this for dinner last night, and my wife loved it to bits. The recipe makes enough for just two generous portions, and when drowned in creamy custard, it is just heaven on a plate.

Have just made this for Sunday desert. I was a bit sceptical about cooking a sponge in the microwave but I have been proved wrong. It is a beautiful sponge, an absolute winner with my two children. Fabulous!
