    How to make a delicious chocolate cupcake in a slow cooker? Very simple!First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Take the flour of the highest grade. Cocoa should also be of high quality. I usually take either Belgian cocoa or a "Golden label". I can't say about other manufacturers. Eggs need large selected ones. If the eggs are small, take 5 pieces. Vanillin can be replaced with 1 tbsp vanilla sugar.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Combine butter, sugar, milk and cocoa in a saucepan. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. But I can say that due to the large amount of cocoa, even with 320 g of sugar, the cupcake is not very sweet.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Put the saucepan on a slow fire and, stirring, heat the mixture until the sugar and butter are completely dissolved.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Cool the finished mixture. To pour the icing over the finished cupcake, pour a little chocolate mixture into a separate bowl. You need about 4-5 tbsp. l .

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Set the slow cooker to the "Baking" mode for 60-65 minutes. Do not open the lid during baking. Please note that depending on the brand and model of the slow cooker, the baking time and the temperature of the baking mode may be different. Therefore, focus on your device.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10.

    After the beep, check the condition of the cupcake with a wooden skewer – it should come out dry. And if necessary, leave the cupcake on the heat for another 10-15 minutes. But usually the cupcake has time to bake in an hour. Remove the finished cake from the bowl and leave to cool at room temperature.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11.

    While the cupcake is cooling, prepare the icing. Heat the remaining chocolate mixture over low heat so that it acquires a fluid consistency again. If desired, you can add a little chocolate to the glaze and warm it up until it dissolves.If necessary, add a little milk or cream to achieve the desired consistency. The glaze should be fluid, medium density.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12.

    Transfer the cooled cupcake to a platter and pour over the chocolate glaze. And decorate the marshmallow if desired.

Be prepared for the fact that you may need more or less flour than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!

Keep in mind that the cooking time and mode are indicated approximately in the recipe. All slow cookers work differently and even the same models of the same manufacturer may have their own characteristics. Before you start cooking a new dish for you in a slow cooker, carefully study the instructions for it, and then in practice try to cook dishes that are familiar to you first, and then new ones, choosing the mode and time individually for your own technique.
