About time for cron tasks

[mapt]

Hello,

Which time is used for the cron tasks to run?

I setup a cron task to be run immediately (every minute, so) that justs logs time () in a file, so I can see the time it counts. For example 11.25

Then I setup this crontask to be run at 11.30, assuming it should be run "in 5 minutes".

5 minutes later or so, the cron is not run. So it probably uses another time?

How can I know exactly what time the cron uses to run the tasks?

Thanks
