It will look the same as our usual muffins, puddings and muffins cooked in the oven. Such a recipe will help out housewives when there is no time and desire to tinker with complex baked goods.
The main feature of the muffin in the microwave is that the dough should be slightly thinner than for baking in the oven. Since the cooking process starts from the edges towards the center, and the center of the product takes a little longer to bake than the edges. Therefore, it is preferable to choose a round or large cup. Simple paper trays, glass, silicone or ceramic plates or bakeware are also suitable for dessert. It is worth noting another advantage of this cake - the low calorie factor, which is especially important for girls. This recipe offers a basic set of ingredients that can be improved by adding whatever is in the kitchen.

Step-by-step preparation of a chocolate cake in the microwave, a recipe with a photo:
1. Pour the contents of the eggs into a cup or any other convenient container. Add sugar and stir with a fork to form a homogeneous liquid.
2. Pour in milk and stir well again with a fork.
3. Add flour. If possible, sift it through a fine iron sieve so that it is enriched with oxygen, and it will be easier to knead the dough this way.
4. Add a pinch of baking soda.
5. Next, add cocoa powder and mix well the dough so that there are no lumps and curd.
6. Pour the dough into a convenient wide-necked baking dish and microwave the chocolate cake. Cooking time depends on the power of the microwave. Sometimes 30 seconds are enough, and some will need 1, 5 minutes. Just in case, periodically check the readiness of the product with a wooden skewer: it must remain dry. The ready-made delicacy can be consumed immediately after preparation in a warm form and directly from the form in which it was prepared.
Note: During microwave cooking, the dough rises a lot. To prevent it from escaping, fill the mold no more than 1/3 part. Also be prepared that as soon as you take the finished cake out of the oven, it will fall off.
