Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to ensure no lumps remain.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth batter.
If desired, fold in chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
Microwave the brownie batter on high for 60-75 seconds. The exact time may vary depending on your microwave's power. Check at 60 seconds to see if the top looks set; if not, cook for an additional 10-15 seconds.
Carefully remove the mug or bowl from the microwave (it will be hot). Allow the brownie to cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying directly from the mug or transferring to a plate.
