British intelligence service MI6 has hacked into an al-Qaeda website and added a cupcake recipe.
The website was maintained by al-Qaeda supporters and included a 67-page magazine which visitors could download, The Washington Post reports.
The magazine was determined by MI6 to be dangerous and a terrorist threat, so the British intelligence officers eventually chose to sabotage it.
They replaced an article called 'Make a Bomb in the Kitchen of Your Mum' - which included instructions on how to construct a pipe bomb using everyday items - with a recipe on making cupcakes.
The recipe was originally published by chatshow host Ellen DeGeneres in a book titled The Best Cupcakes in America.
MI6 also attacked other parts of the magazine, removing all articles by Osama Bin Laden as well as a feature named 'What to Expect in Jihad'. It reportedly took the al-Qaeda supporters more than two weeks to upload a corrected version of the magazine.
The intelligence agency called the operation 'Operation Cupcake'.
Oh my God
