Boom's Bacon Bites

Boomsplat's Bacon Bites!
Gamer rating: Anywhere!
Prep-time: about 15 minutes, plus a few hours of soaking time

What could be better than bacon? How about yummy goodness wrapped in bacon? Yum! These are bite-sized, easy to eat treats, but be very careful when they come out of the microwave because they will be VERY hot!
  • strips of bacon
  • 1 can water chestnuts, packed in water
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • toothpicks
  1. Drain chestnuts well. Place in bowl.
  2. Pour Worcestershire sauce over chestnuts until covered. Cover with lid, tinfoil, what ever. Soak in fridge at least an hour. Longer if you can manage to wait. Overnight is best.
  3. Take 2-3 slices of soaked chestnuts, wrap in slice of bacon, skewer with toothpick. Repeat as desired.
  4. Place bites on a couple paper towels. Place on plate. Microwave on high for 4 min. Check bacon. If not done, do another min. Repeat until bacon is done.
  5. WAIT, very hot treats! After they cool a minute, savor.

Requires a microwave.

Thanks to Boomsplat of Khadgar for the recipe!

DIY Fondant, from Craft Envy

DIY Fondant (with mini marshmallows!)
Prep-time: 10-15 minutes

Alright, so it's not technically Gamer food, but what if you're throwing a party and want to make a really cool gamer related cake!? The image shown here is from Craft Envy, but I've seen Warcraft and Myst themed cakes on Cakewrecks (nice cakes, not the wrecks).
This isn't my recipe and I don't have permission to repost it, so if you want to see if you'll have to head on over to Craft Envy. Here's a direct link.

Sweet Treats in 5 minutes or less!

5 minute chocolate cake
Gamer rating: it's in a mug, eat it anywhere!
Prep-time 5 minutes

Note from the Chef: We use melted butter in ours, rather than oil, and chocolate chips is the way to go. We've actually whipped this up in a raid break and come back to eat freshly made hot chocolate cake at people in vent, it's that quick! It's even yummier with raspberry jam, sauce, or real berries, and cream....
  • 4 tbs / 45 gms self raising flour
  • 4 tbs / 55gms caster sugar
  • 2 tbs / 17gms cocoa powder
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbs / 43 mls milk
  • 3 tbs / 25 mls sunflower oil
  • 3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
  • A small dash of vanilla extract
  • 1 large coffee mug
  1. Add dry ingredients to the mug, and mix well.
  2. Add the egg and mix thoroughly
  3. Add the milk and oil - mix well (don't forget the corners / edges of the mug).
  4. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again
  5. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes (in a 1000 watt microwave).
  6. The cake will rise above the top of the mug, but don't worry it’s supposed to!
  7. Allow to cool a little, tip out onto a plate (or eat right out of the mug!)
