All you need to do is mix the ingredients, pour the dough into a suitable mug, wait 2-3 minutes - and the “Hopelessness” cake is ready! As you can see, no hassle or long hours at the stove - everything is extremely simple and accessible!

Ingredients per 1 serving:

• flour - 4 tbsp. spoons;
• cocoa powder - 2 tbsp. spoons;
• egg - 1 pc.;
• butter - 50 g;
• milk - 3 tbsp. spoons;
• sugar - 4 tbsp. spoons;
• dark chocolate - 20 g.

How to make a cupcake “Hopelessness”

1. You can knead the cake dough directly in a mug, but it is still better to do this in a separate, spacious and deep bowl to make mixing the ingredients more convenient. So, first of all, sift the entire amount of flour and cocoa at once.
   
2. Add sugar and mix dry ingredients. For flavoring at this stage, you can add a pinch of vanillin or a teaspoon of vanilla sugar, but this is purely optional.
   
3. Add a large raw egg to the mixture of dry ingredients and mix.
   
4. Next, pour in milk at room temperature, knead the still thick dough until it is as smooth as possible.
   
5. Melt the butter until liquid over low heat or in the microwave. Cool and pour into the dough, stir again. The result should be a viscous and homogeneous chocolate-colored dough.
   
6. As a final touch, rub the chocolate into fine shavings. This ingredient is optional in the recipe, but with it the Despair cake will have a more pronounced chocolate taste.
   
7. Stir the batter one last time to evenly distribute the chocolate chips, then pour into a clean, dry cup/mug. Don't forget that not all materials are microwave safe! It is best to give preference to ceramic, glass or porcelain dishes without gilded designs.
   
8. We put our workpiece in the microwave oven and set the maximum power. Preparing a chocolate cake in a mug in the microwave takes about 2-3 minutes (the exact time depends on some of the features and power of the particular microwave oven). Please note that the cake will rise significantly during cooking, so the mug should be filled about halfway with batter.
   
9. Decorate the finished “Hopelessness” cupcake with powdered sugar or, for example, whipped cream. Also goes well with a sweet cupcake

1. The easiest way to make a cupcake is in a mug. But simple paper molds, plates, glass or ceramic baking dishes will also work.

Sugar can be replaced with a crushed version - powder. It will quickly dissolve in liquid ingredients, which will not happen with regular sand. If the sugar remains intact crystals, it will start to burn and ruin your dessert.

If you grease your mug with too much oil, your cake will be too oily and greasy. It will be inconvenient to eat, but it will easily fall out of the dishes.

When the cake is ready, the top is firm, crispy and springy. When baking in a microwave oven, you cannot get a golden brown color, even if your cake is without cocoa. This is a minus of the microwave.

To prevent the dough from spilling over the edges of the mug, we strongly recommend filling the container only 2/3 full. Then the mass will have somewhere to rise during the growth period and it will not leak out.

The baking mixture must be quite liquid, like pancake batter. If it turns out dense, be prepared for the cake to be hard and tough. You can dilute the dough with any liquid ingredient. It could be milk, eggs or some fruit/berry puree.

A cupcake in a cup will be good not only as a backup option for guests who arrive too suddenly. You can serve it with your morning coffee, evening tea, or take it with you to work. It is suitable as a snack for a picnic, and as a portioned dessert for a children's birthday. Universal!
