Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
    2 Tablespoons Sugar
    2 Tablespoons Flour
    pinch of salt
    1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
    1 tsp Canola Oil
    2-3 Tablespoons of water

Directions

Combine dry ingredients in a mug and blend with a fork. Add wet ingredients and blend well. (Will be quite thick. Add additional 1 Tbsp of water for a brownie that is less dense with a more gooey texture.

Nuke on high power approximately 1 minute, until desired consistency is reached. (Partially soft in the center is ideal; it cooks a bit after the time is up!)

Top with desired toppings and enjoy.

    Very tasty. Just what I was craving. I did add a sprinkle of baking powder, and cooked only 1 minute. - 8/25/15

    Delicious! I followed other reviewers' advice about adding a pinch of baking powder. I loved the texture and the hint of gooeyness around the edges. The flavor was rich but to me, not too much so. My three daughters loved it s well. It's sure to become a favorite here! - 2/24/15

    Also, I forgot to mention, but I added a small sprinkle of baking powder to the dry ingredients to make it fluffier. - 2/22/11

    Delicious! Noting a few comments about a rubbery texture, I also added a pinch of baking powder and a small squirt of honey (tends to make cakes moister). Works a treat! I baked it in a small square Corningware and it made 4 'brownies' -- 2 apiece for me and my hubby. - 7/23/14

    Win!!!! I added a pinch of baking powder. Also I put a half cup of water in the microwave with it to keep it from getting a rubbery texture. Of course it's not the same texture as oven baked, but chocolatey and good. Do not overcook! - 4/2/13

    I tried this twice, adjusting microwave time and power level, but it still came out rubbery and too chewy for my taste. - 4/10/12

    Aww.. I'm sorry to hear you were not pleased with it. Maybe try nuking a little less time and see if it improves the texture? We like ours soft in the middle, and I think that helps with the rubbery feel if you dont overbake it. Thanks for the comment tho :o)

    Added honey in place of vanilla. Also used a full quarter cup of water. Very gooey and just what I needed on this cold day! - 2/20/18

    Used dark coca and sugar substitute - Swerve granulated. Delicious! I appreciated that this is lower fat. 3rd try was better - added 1/4 tsp bp and reduced microw time to 3/4 minute. - 4/30/17

    Too much cocoa. Texture is good.. a little less cocoa, maybe a little more sugar and I would increase the score. I might use milk instead of water too....we'll see. - 4/10/16

    I usually pass up on desserts but tonight I was in the mood for chocolate. I was eating within 5 minutes. I was out of baking powder but it needed a tiny bit. I will also add some vanilla and maybe a sprinkle of cinnamon next time. It was quicker than running out for a sweet and much cheaper. - 7/8/15

    Wonderful recipe. I cooked it really too much, and it became hard as a cookie ! What a delicious cookie. Next time, I will have a lighter hand on the cooking time. Thank you very much. I love it ! - 6/17/15

    Strong chocolate flavor. Maybe cut back a little on the cocoa powder. - 3/3/15

    The sodium content in this recipe has to be wrong, it is almost 5 times the sodium in other brownie recipes and basically uses the same ingredients. Someone has to check - 2/25/15

    Fantastic. Instead of unsweetened powder and sugar, I just added 2 Tbsp of chocolate milk mix. It was moist and chocolatey. I know what to make when my sweet tooth hits again. - 8/19/14

    I loved your dessert idea so much I did a makeover using stevia (for those of us who can't have sugar) what a great way to curb those chocolate cravings. It's awesome with just a couple of teaspoons of peanut butter on top too. - 8/29/13

    OH MY GOODNESS! Some people are picky, but when it comes to an intense chocolate craving, only the real stuff will do! I actually couldn't eat it all because it was so rich, but it was ohhhh so good! My husband finished it and loved it as well! Thank you! - 2/2/13

    Thank you! My husband is on a temporary low iodine diet, which (among other things) means no diary, no egg yolk. I was trying to figure out a chocolaty treat for him and found your recipe. It was a big hit! - 1/21/12

    Easy to make, and only 1 minute to cook- weird!
    Has a sort of weird consistency, but it doesn't detract from the chocolate! (consistency is similar to microwavable meals that contain brownies). This hits the spot and saves me from the binge that comes with making a whole tin of brownies.     - 3/28/10
