Shocked Cake recipe

Hi,
First things first.

I could not find a microwave recipe from scratch that has to be cooked in a bunt pan.

But here is a site that explains how to convert an old recipe to a microwave recipe:

http://www.microwavecookingforone.com/Adapting.html

The most important thing seems to be that you use less water and less salt.

Quote:
--Reduce the amount of liquid in the conventional recipe by about one-fourth because there is less evaporation in microwave cooking.

--Use no salt, or less salt. The microwave oven emphasizes the salt content in food, so recipes containing a conventional amount of salt will taste twice as salty.

--Foods containing liquid, sugar and fat cook faster. So reduce the cooking time by 1/4 of conventional cooking and then gradually increase until you obtain the desired result.

Here's another site with microwave cake recipes:

This site talks about the 4H cake:

I hope that this helps.
