In a microwave-safe mug, add the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly with a fork or small whisk to combine all the dry ingredients evenly.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir until a smooth and lump-free batter forms.
If desired, fold in chocolate chips for extra chocolaty goodness.
Microwave the mug on high power for 60-90 seconds. Start with 60 seconds and check for doneness; the brownie should look set on the top but still slightly gooey in the center.
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot). Let it cool for 1-2 minutes before digging in.
Enjoy your warm and fudgy brownie straight from the mug, optionally topped with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream!
