Microwave made Chocolate Cupcakes!

Many people don't know it is possible to make your cupcakes in the microwave. It is true you can and it takes only 3 minutes to bake them!  Here is one recipe for chocolate cupcakes made in coffee cups!



Products you need:
6tbs plain flour
2 eggs
4tbs milk
6-7tbs sugar
4tbs cocoa powder
½ baking soda
4 tbs neutral oil


Mix all the ingredients well and divide it into two medium sized cups(or 4 small cups ). Bake for about 3 minutes on maximum power in your microwave. Since they are baked in microwave expect them to be a bit dry. Serve with ice cream beside or whipped cream and dust them with powdered sugar on top. Taking them out of the cups works too! If you have any questions go on and leave them as a comment!
