Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/8 teaspoons Salt
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a standard-sized microwave-safe mug, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well with a fork or mini whisk to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mug. Stir thoroughly until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
Step 3
If desired, gently fold in the chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
Step 4
Microwave the mug on high power for 60-90 seconds. Start with 60 seconds and check; the brownie should look set and slightly firm to the touch, but still moist in the center. Avoid overcooking, as this can make the brownie dry.
Step 5
Carefully remove the mug from the microwave (it will be hot). Let it cool for 1-2 minutes before digging in.
Step 6
Enjoy your warm, gooey brownie straight from the mug, or top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat!
