Chocolate brownie in a mug recipe
Oh the endless possibilities of a chocolate brownie mix that is just realy frikken awesome!!!
I am VERY late to the world of mug cakes, I have always known about them, always used a stock standard recipe, but never made a variation of it or even tried to think of something better!
Until now that is!
Did you see my Biscoff Mug Cake recipe?
If not, go have a look, it’s too die for and just so darn quick and easy and a real show stopper if you add some extra goodness to the top!
It’s Easter in a few weeks, I honestly can’t believe it, it really feels like something is wrong with my calendar, like maybe one of the kids keeps pulling the months off?
In all things easter baking, I decided to do one of my all time favorite new addiction chocolate brownie in a mug recipes!
For me this is mixed up within 5 minutes and done cooking! My microwave is set to 900W so, I presume that’s HIGH. After mixing, 90seconds is all it needs and it’s done!
I make quite a few of these in the colder months, as both my kids prefer to eat chocolate than to drink it, funny, as I prefer it to! Maybe it’s one of those indirect things that I have made them do!
I, again, don’t really know how long this will last if not eaten straight away, but to be fair, these are made to be eaten straight away and not really kept for a rainy day! As I am writing this, its literally pouring down on my windows!
WHAT YOU NEED
Our Chocolate Brownie Mix - of course :)
4 tablespoons of milk
1 teaspoon of oil
Some extra Mini Eggs for garnish - since its almost Easter, or whatever you feel like adding to the top!
METHOD
Take 5 Tablespoons from your brownie baking mix, add it to your mug. Add the milk and oil to the same mug and give it a good mix. Here, you can add some extra chocolate chips, mini eggs, dried raspberries, honestly whatever makes you happy, or leave it plain!
Pop this into the microwave for 90 seconds. This is how long mine went on 900W - HIGH. It tends to pull away from the sides very slightly when it’s ready. Or do a test and insert a skewer!
Add your favorite toppings to the top of your chocolate brownie in a mug, and please be carefull as it’s VERY hot when it’s just come out the microwave!
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE REST OF THE BROWNIE MIX AFTER YOU HAVE MADE A CHOCOLATE BROWNIE IN A MUG?
This, is a really good question!
A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E-L-Y nothing!
Just re-seal it using the little zipper thingy at the top, and use it EXACTLY as you would when needing to make your brownie! How’s that for being versatile!
If you decide to make more chocolate brownie mug cakes, please do let me know how many you get out of a pouch!! I have never gotten that far and if I do, I forget how many I made 3 weeks later! LOL!
