Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1.5 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth batter with no dry lumps.
If using chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter for an extra burst of chocolate flavor.
Spread the batter evenly in the mug and make sure to scrape down the sides.
Microwave the mug on high for 60 seconds. Cooking time may vary based on your microwave, so check after 50 seconds and adjust accordingly. The brownie is done when the top looks set but is still soft to the touch.
Allow the brownie to cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying. Be careful, as the mug will be hot!
