This delightful brownie in a mug recipe is perfect for when you want a sweet treat without the hassle of baking a whole batch. Rich, gooey, and ready in minutes, it's the ultimate dessert to share with someone special.
Chocolate Chips or Nuts(optional), just a few for added texture
Instructions
Prepare the mugs: divide the dry ingredients equally between two microwave-safe mugs: 2 tbsp flour, 2 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt in each mug. Mix well.
Add the wet ingredients: to each mug, add 1.5 tbsp milk, 1 tbsp melted butter (or oil), and a drop of vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain.
Add mix-ins (optional): Stir in a few chocolate chips or nuts if desired.
Microwave: microwave each mug separately on high for about 45-60 seconds. The brownie should rise and look set but still moist in the center (cooking times may vary depending on your microwave).
Serve and enjoy: allow to cool for a minute before serving. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
