Description

Craving a rich, gooey brownie but don’t want to bake a whole batch? This Brownie in a Mug is the perfect single-serving dessert, ready in just 5 minutes! Made with simple ingredients and cooked in the microwave, this quick and easy treat is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth instantly.


Ingredients


Instructions

1️⃣ Melt the Butter:

  • In a microwave-safe mug, melt the butter in the microwave for 20-30 seconds.

2️⃣ Mix Wet Ingredients:

  • Add milk and vanilla extract to the melted butter. Stir to combine.

3️⃣ Add Dry Ingredients:

  • Stir in sugar, cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Mix until smooth and no dry spots remain.

4️⃣ Add Chocolate Chips (Optional):

  • Fold in the chocolate chips for an extra gooey texture.

5️⃣ Microwave:

  • Microwave on high for 45-60 seconds. Start with 45 seconds and check for doneness—the brownie should be set on top but still slightly soft in the center.

6️⃣ Cool & Enjoy:

  • Let the brownie cool for 1-2 minutes before digging in.

Notes

Fudgier Texture: Reduce the microwave time slightly for an extra gooey brownie.
Extra Toppings: Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent treat.
Prevent Overflow: Use a larger mug to ensure the brownie doesn’t spill over while cooking.
