Yes, it's a shortcut in a microwave. It's also a gooey, fudgy, wildly good chocolate cake.
Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
