Emergency Cake Saver

So, the cake is cooked and looks lovely and golden and seems like it might even come out of the tin. You poke a skewer in, just to check, and... ah... not cooked in the middle. It happens, but it may be possible to save it.

Take the cake out of the tin and put it in the microwave for one minute. Test it again and if it isn't cooked, pop it in for another minute. The microwave cooks from the inside out, which is exactly what the cake needs, but could make the cake a little soggy, so pop it back in the oven for a couple of minutes to finish it off.

In the worst case, if it's still a bit soggy, clearly the cake was supposed to be, um, "deliciously moist", or something like that.
