Craving a little chocolate fix? Well if you have a few minutes and a microwave, you can make this Easy Chocolate Brownie in a Mug Recipe
I discovered this recipe on one of those unsourced Pinterest internet hint meme things. It’s super easy and just the thing to satisfy a Chocolate craving without baking a whole cake.
I shared the recipe last week in the My Poppet newsletter, and have had so many lovely thank you emails, that sharing it on the blog was the least I could do.
Make some for the kids as an afternoon surprise, ice cream is optional but makes this treat extra special.
Ingredients
1/4 cup sugar (I used a little less)
1/4 cup SR flour
2 tbsp cocoa
pinch of salt
2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp water (I added an extra one)
Method
Combine all the dry ingredients in a mug, add oil and water and mix well till combined. If it’s too dry add a little extra water.
Microwave for 1 min 40 sec
Bing! All done. Careful it’s hot.
Cake has a slightly dry consistency so feel free to add liberal amounts of ice cream whilst still warm.
Hardly any washing up – You’re welcome!









Hi, this looks amazing! I’ve recently become Vegan and have been craving a hot chocolatey drink that doesn’t taste like a compromise – I think this might be it! Off to try it now, thank you!
Great idea! I never thought of it as a vegan recipe. would be great with coconut cream ice cream as a special treat. Enjoy!
