Delicious Cupcake Recipe: Step-by-Step Master Class

Cupcake, like biscuit, can be considered a universal type of baking. It can be simple, no filling, and yet delicious. The big advantage of the cake is that it is not whimsical in preparation, you do not need to tinker with it for a long time and, unlike the same biscuit, it will not "go down". Therefore, even a novice hostess can handle it. Today I propose to cook a very simple but amazing-tasting cupcake, which will definitely settle on a permanent basis in your cookbook.

Cupcake Ingredients

I love recipes in which there are no tricky and long lists of ingredients and complicated cooking manipulations. Therefore, recipes like this one take pride of place in my cookbook.

To make a cupcake you will need:

• 160 g butter (I took butter margarine);
• 150 g sugar;
• three eggs;
• 1.5-2 cups of flour (may be less or more, you need to watch in the process);
• a couple of teaspoons of baking powder;
• 6 tablespoons of water;
• 0.5 teaspoon of salt;
• vanillin.

This is the basic set. You can add the filling to the cake if you wish. It can be "standard" raisins or cherries. I decided to use a crumb of chocolate for this task. I just chopped it into small cubes and poured it into the dough, but more on that later.

How to make a cupcake

First of all, you need to grind the butter (in my case, margarine) with sugar. This can be done with a fork or mixer.

Then add the eggs one by one and beat well. Add 0.5 teaspoon of salt.

Next, pour in water, add baking powder, add sifted flour. Beat the dough with a mixer to avoid lumps. The dough should not be liquid and not thick, something in between. It should be noted that the structure of the dough turns out to be unusually delicate, in its appearance and consistency it is more reminiscent of a soufflé.

At this stage, you can add the filling to the cupcake. In my case, these are slices of chocolate. Stir well again.

Prepare a baking dish. If the mold is not silicone, lubricate it with oil. Lay out the dough and spoon to smooth the surface. After that, you can put the cake in the oven, preheated to 180-200 ° C, for 45-50 minutes. You can check the readiness by using a toothpick. Stick it in the center of the baked product, if the stick remains dry - ready, wet - you need to cook more.

That's all, our cupcake is ready. Now he needs to be allowed to cool completely, so to speak, to reach. It turns out to be very tasty, light and fluffy, and eaten in one sitting. Enjoy your meal!
