Cook’s tips
• To make the cake more pantry-friendly, swap butter for 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil.
• No milk? Use water instead.
• Instead of chocolate chips, try rolled oats or finely chopped apple or pear.
• For an indulgent adult twist, drizzle your favourite liqueur over the cake once cooked.
• Use microwave-safe cups. Please note, the cups used in this shoot are ceramic, made to look like enamel.
