Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons Hot water
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate chips
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until combined.
Stir in the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until a smooth batter forms.
Sprinkle the brown sugar and the remaining 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder evenly over the batter.
Slowly pour the hot water over the top, but do not stir. This will create the pudding layer as it bakes.
Microwave the mug or bowl on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave's wattage. The brownie should be set on top but still have a gooey pudding layer at the bottom.
Carefully remove from the microwave (it will be hot) and let cool for 1-2 minutes.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top as it cools for added richness, and enjoy warm.
