I've had this one before and it's actually quite tasty. It is high in calories though, but is low carb. I think I got it from Linda's LowCarb Recipe site. I can't remember, sorry.



3 MINUTE CHOCOLATE CAKE
1/4 cup almond flour, 1 ounce
1 tablespoon cocoa
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon granulated Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon water
1 egg
Mix the almond flour, cocoa, baking powder and granulated Splenda, if using, in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Stir in the liquid Splenda, if using, butter, water and egg. Mix well with a spoon or fork. Scrape batter down evenly with a rubber spatula. Cover with plastic wrap * and vent by cutting a small slit in center. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute until set but still a little moist on top. I had to do mine for 1 minute 20 seconds. Cool slightly and serve warm topped with whipped cream or cool completely and frost as desired.
Makes 2 servings
Can be frozen
* I'd forgotten to cover mine with plastic, but it came out wonderful anyway. I think the plastic would probably keep it very moist, perhaps more like a pudding cake in texture.
