Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1.5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1.5 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture: milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Stir gently with a spoon or small whisk until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Place the mug or bowl in the microwave and cook on high for 50-60 seconds, depending on the power of your microwave. The brownie cake should look set but soft in the center. Avoid overcooking to keep it fudgy!
Allow the brownie cake to cool for 1-2 minutes before digging in. For extra indulgence, serve with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top.
