Fudge Mug Brownie

Ever had guests arrive and need something quick and delicious to serve? These take 60 seconds to cook, use ingredients on hand, and can easily be modified for carob or gluten-free options.


Fudge Mug Brownie:
4 Tbsp flour (all purpose)
4 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 Tbsp oil
2 Tbsp water
(if you like a more cake-like texture add a dash of baking powder)

Mix all ingredients in a mug and microwave for 1 min (slightly less if you want a 'melting chocolate cake' type effect).

Carob Variation:
Decrease sugar to 3 Tbsp and add extra 1Tbsp each of water and oil.

Gluten-Free option:
Simply substitute Gluten-free all-purpose flour instead of regular flour.
