Microwave Brownie Mug

A single-serve brownie mixed and microwaved for just 60-90 seconds — pull it while the centre still looks slightly underset, it firms up as it cools.

Ingredients

3 tbspcocoa powder
4 tbspsugar
1egg
3 tbsp / 2 tbspflour and butter

Instructions

1

Whisk the melted butter, sugar and egg together directly in the mug until smooth, making sure the butter is not hot enough to scramble the egg.

2

Fold in the cocoa powder and flour until just combined, overmixing at this stage is what makes microwave brownies turn tough and rubbery instead of fudgy.

3

Microwave for 60-90 seconds, checking at 60.

4

Pull it out while the centre still looks slightly underset, it firms up as it cools, and overcooking is the most common mistake.
