It's 11pm on a Friday night and you've been studying for the last 5 hours. You have to take a break, but you know that getting on Facebook is only going to make you jealous of all your friends who aren't in school and are enjoying a night on the town, hanging out with friends, spending time with their significant other, or who headed out of the city for a weekend adventure... and you still have 382 pages to read, 17 power point presentations to go over--and that's for just one of the 3 tests and 2 practicals you have next week.
And then the craving hits--you just HAVE to have a cupcake. And now that's all you can think about. There's no way that you're going to be able to memorize the specificity/sensitivity of musculoskeletal special tests, read that research article, or work on that group project until you have a cupcake.
I found this recipe several years ago, lost it, bookmarked it, Google Chrome dumped all my bookmarks, and came across it again yesterday. This recipe made Friday study nights so much better, raised my grades, made me a physical therapist, and saved my life. (Ok, I might be slightly exaggerating, but this recipe is a life-changer!) And best of all, you can mix it up with a fork/spoon/some sort of stirring implement inside a mug/bowl/glass/coffee thermos... this recipe is sink-full-of-dirty-dishes-and-I-don't-have-time-to-wash-them friendly!

One Bowl Vanilla Cupcakes for Two
1 egg white
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla (yes, a full teaspoon – they are super vanilla-y!)
1/4 cup flour
1/4 heaping teaspoon of baking powder
pinch of salt
1 1/2 tablespoons milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin pan with 2 liners.
In a bowl, add egg white and sugar and whisk until combined. Add in vanilla and melted butter and stir until mixed. Add flour, baking powder and salt and stir until smooth. Stir in milk. Divide batter equally between the 2 cupcake liners.
Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes, or until cake is set. Let cool completely, then frost as desired.
