Hey there, sweet tooth! Are you craving something decadent but don’t have the time or energy for a full-blown baking session? Fear not, because I’ve got just the treat for you – a Mug Brownie! In just a few minutes, you can whip up a single serving of rich, chocolatey goodness right in your microwave.
Why Mug Brownie?
Mug Brownie is the ultimate solution for those moments when you need a quick chocolate fix. It’s simple, convenient, and oh-so-satisfying. Plus, you probably have all the ingredients you need right in your pantry!
Ingredients:
- All-Purpose Flour: 2 tablespoons
- Cocoa Powder: 2 tablespoons
- Granulated Sugar: 2 tablespoons
- Brown Sugar: 1 tablespoon, packed
- Salt: Pinch
- Vegetable Oil: 2 tablespoons
- Water: 2 tablespoons
- Vanilla Extract: 1/4 teaspoon
- Chocolate Chips: 1 tablespoon (optional, but highly recommended!)
Instructions:
- Preparation: In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in vegetable oil, water, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in chocolate chips for an extra burst of chocolatey goodness.
- Microwave: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 60-90 seconds, depending on your microwave’s wattage and desired brownie consistency. The brownie should look set but still slightly gooey in the center.
- Cool and Enjoy: Carefully remove the mug from the microwave and let the brownie cool for a minute before digging in. Top with a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent treat!
Tips for Success:
- Don’t Overcook: Keep an eye on the brownie as it cooks in the microwave to avoid ending up with a dry, overdone brownie. Adjust the cooking time based on your microwave’s power.
- Get Creative: Feel free to customize your Mug Brownie with your favorite mix-ins like nuts, caramel sauce, or even a dollop of peanut butter!
- Enjoy Immediately: Mug Brownie is best enjoyed fresh and warm from the microwave, so dig in as soon as it’s cool enough to handle!
