Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1.5 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.125 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened applesauce
- 3 tablespoons Skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Mini dark chocolate chips
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug, combine the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well with a fork or small whisk to ensure there are no clumps.
Add the unsweetened applesauce, skim milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients in the mug. Stir thoroughly until you have a smooth batter.
Fold in the mini dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 60-80 seconds. The brownie is done when it's set but still slightly gooey in the middle.
Remove the mug from the microwave carefully (it will be hot). Allow the brownie to cool for a minute or so before diving in.
