Have you ever wanted a brownie but didn’t want to make an entire batch? And you didn’t want to go to the store because, well, you were in your pajamas and it was 11 o’clock at night? I have a solution! This brownie in a mug is a single serving and is made.. wait for it… in the microwave! Yes, I know, seems too good to be true. But look no further my friends! Sweet, fudgy goodness coming right up…

What you will need:

One microwave safe coffee mug
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Dash of salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

What to do:

In the coffee mug, mix together flour, sugar, salt, and cocoa powder. Add the oil, water and vanilla and stir until combined. Place in microwave and cook on high for about 1 minute 20 seconds. Take out of microwave and voila! A delicious brownie for you, and only you.

Enjoy warm! Serve with a scoop of ice cream and sprinkles, or pour some Bailey’s Irish Cream on top. Yum yum 🙂
