Hello everyone! The recipe for an unusual chocolate cake in a glass was suggested to me by my oldest daughter. She will help me to prepare this simple but delicious chocolate dessert.
The dough for making a cupcake in a glass in the microwave will be just one serving, so a small bowl with high edges is used as a mixing container.
Let's take the ingredients from the list.
Add 2 tablespoons of flour and 2 tablespoons of Nesquik cocoa to a bowl. The main ingredients are mixed thoroughly with a spoon.
To make the cake flavorful, you need to add vanillin. For friability, a baking powder is introduced. We only need 1 tablespoon of sugar, since our recipe uses sweet cocoa. If you take regular powdered cocoa, then increase the portion of sugar by two to three times. Just a little salt, and we have it all with free-flowing ingredients.
Continue to knead the chocolate cake batter - prepare the liquid ingredients.
We introduce milk, warm butter and chicken yolk.
The dough is thoroughly mixed with a whisk into a homogeneous semi-liquid mass.
Poured into a glass or mug, filling the container by exactly one third. I advise you to choose a glass with a capacity of at least 250 ml. A glass of dough is sent to the microwave for 3.5 minutes. Heating mode - maximum.
Cupcake in a glass in the microwave was a success! Flip the cupcake glass over on the saucer. The finished cake will easily pop out of the glass. To make the cupcake more or less cute, sprinkle the bonnet with powdered sugar.
Our miniature chocolate dessert is perfectly cut with a knife, has a crumbly base, like a real adult cake.

How to make a mug chocolate cake in the microwave in 5 minutes
The dough for the cake can be kneaded directly in the mug, but it is more convenient to use a separate bowl for this. In principle, ingredients can be added in any order. The main thing is that you need to mix it so that the output turns out to be a mass without lumps. With the liquid-to-dry principle, it will be easier and faster to achieve a homogeneous dough. Therefore, first pour flour into the bowl, if desired, you can sift it. Then sugar.
Add the last free-flowing ingredient - cocoa.
Important! All dry ingredients are measured with flat tablespoons!
Stir the dry mixture and add the egg to the bowl first. Then melted butter. It is also better to measure the oil with spoons, you should get 3-4 tbsp. l. If it turned out that there was no butter at hand, it is quite possible to replace it with the same amount of vegetable oil.
The last part of the dough is milk. We add.
And knead the chocolate dough until it is as homogeneous as possible. The dough should not be very thick, otherwise the cake will come out quite dense, dry and heterogeneous in structure. The consistency of the dough should not be thicker than low-fat sour cream.
We load the mug into the microwave. We set the maximum power, the time is 3-3.5 minutes, depending on the micro power. For 700 W we set 3.5 minutes, for 800 W - 3 minutes will be enough. For longer baking, the cake can be overdried.
At about the 2nd minute, the cake will start to rise above the rim of the mug. Do not be alarmed, nothing will "run away". During this time, the dough has already “grabbed”.
After the allotted time, carefully (it is very hot) take out the mug from the micro. From a sharp temperature drop, the cake will "sit down" quite a bit.
It is better to eat the cake immediately, before it has cooled down too much. Therefore, sprinkle it with powdered sugar (if desired) and serve it directly in a mug.
It is more convenient to eat a cake with a small spoon.

Cupcake without eggs (milk)
For the next recipe, we will use a minimal set of products. Just five ingredients, five minutes of time, and you have a delicious, aromatic chocolate muffin. Most people will like it, especially since the products used are acceptable even on the vegetarian menu.
Ingredients:
- Cocoa powder - 2 tablespoons;
- Wheat flour - 4 tablespoons;
- Sugar - 2 tablespoons;
- Milk - 140 ml;
- Slaked soda or baking powder - 1 tsp
Preparation:
- Sift wheat flour with baking powder and cocoa into a bowl. If you are using slaked soda, add it at the end of the sieve.
- Add sugar and stir a little.
- Add milk to the dry ingredients and mix everything together until smooth.
- Grease a mug with oil and fill it halfway with dough. Place in the microwave for 2.5-3 minutes.
- Add vanilla, vanillin, or cinnamon to your chocolate muffins to taste. You can use various aromatic extracts, but in scanty amounts.
- Citrus zest will become an interesting accent in the chocolate dough. But you need to be careful with this product - if you put too much zest, it will be unpleasantly bitter.
- Vegetable oil in recipes can be replaced with butter, but it must first be melted. This can be done in a saucepan or the same microwave oven.
- For microwave baking, use any mug suitable for this type of technique (porcelain, glass or ceramics without metal elements). If you don't have a suitable cup, you can also use a small bowl.
- Sifting flour and cocoa is optional. But if you sift, then you will surely get rid of lumps, and the dough will turn out to be airier.
- Try filling muffins. To do this, pour half of the dough into a mug, place a piece of chocolate, some berries, prunes or a spoonful of jam there and pour the remaining dough.
- Use a regular tea mug or small coffee mug for mouth-watering mini cupcakes.
- Be sure to mix the dough thoroughly to dissolve the sugar crystals. Otherwise, they will burn.
- Make sure the dough is runny. If you put more flour than you need, then the baked goods will be tasteless and tough. The same goes for other bulk products. The consistency of the resulting dough should not be thicker than that of fatty yogurt.
- It is important not to overexpose baked goods, otherwise you risk getting a dry lump of dough. Therefore, when trying a new recipe, first put the cake on for the minimum time, and then, if necessary, add a little.
- Serve the finished cake in a cup with tea, coffee or cocoa, garnish with powdered sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, a mint leaf or a scoop of ice cream.
- To make your microwave baked goods even more delicious, you can prepare impregnation or icing for them. Diluted alcoholic beverages (brandy, liqueur, cognac, rum), syrups and juices will be used for soaking. And you can make the icing from powdered sugar and butter or citrus juice by adding various flavoring and aromatic fillers to the composition. Water the cupcake directly in the mug or take it out first.
