Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 heaping pinch kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 2 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips, plus more for topping (optional)
  • vanilla ice cream, for serving

Instructions

  • To a 10 or 12-ounce microwave-safe mug, add cocoa powder, flour, sugar, and salt. Use a fork to stir until the dry ingredients are fully mixed.
  • Pour in the milk, oil, and vanilla, then stir gently until most of the dry ingredients are just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Add the chocolate chips and stir until evenly combined. Top with extra chocolate chips (if using).
  • Microwave on high for 1 minute. The brownie should puff up and look mostly set, with a few glossy spots on top. (If the center still looks too wet or undercooked, microwave in 10-second bursts until the top is just set but still soft.)
  • Let the brownie in a mug cool for a few minutes before serving.
  • Top with a scoop of ice cream and enjoy warm.
