Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/8 teaspoons Salt
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a standard-sized microwave-safe mug, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well with a fork or mini whisk to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir thoroughly until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
If desired, gently fold in the chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
Microwave the mug on high power for 60-90 seconds. Start with 60 seconds and check; the brownie should look set and slightly firm to the touch, but still moist in the center. Avoid overcooking, as this can make the brownie dry.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot). Let it cool for 1-2 minutes before digging in.
Enjoy your warm, gooey brownie straight from the mug, or top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat!
