Enjoy a single-serving, chocolatey brownie in a mug in no time with my 1 Minute Microwave Mug Brownie recipe!
- 4 tablespoons (1 ¼oz/35g) all-purpose flour
- 3 - 4 tablespoons (1oz/28g) * unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- pinch of salt
- 6 tablespoons (3floz/90ml) milk
- 2 tablespoons flavorless oil (canola oil/vegetable oil/sunflower oil)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon semi-sweet chocolate chips
-
In a medium microwavable mug (roughly 1 cup measurement) mix together the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, and salt.
-
In to the dry ingredients add in the milk, oil, and vanilla extract and mix together until you form your batter.
-
Mix in the chocolate chips. (If you don’t want to cook them off straight away, then place them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.)
-
Microwave for 1 minute 40 seconds - 1 minute 50 seconds or until it has risen and the batter doesn't look wet. (Timing is based on my 1200W microwave so your timing might vary).
-
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream & enjoy!

Cocoa is an acid ingredient - if you find it too strong adding a pinch of bicarbonate of soda will mellow it out or - reduce the amount of cocoa
Cooking time will vary greatly depending on your microwave and the width and depth of the mug.
Always keep a close eye on your mug while in the microwave so it doesn’t overflow or overcook
