Recipe for a brownie in a cup.
This is what you’ll need to make it:
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 Tbsp cocoa
- 1/4 tsp bkg soda
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 Tbsp veg oil
- 2 Tbsp chocolate chips (optional)
Mix it up and cook it.
Put the dry ingredients into a microwaveable mug, and stir them up until they’re really well-mixed. Make sure to drag the spoon around the bottom of the mug to get any bits that are hiding at the base of the mug.
Add the wet ingredients and the chocolate chips and stir everything well until it’s all incorporated. You can use less of the chocolate chips, or leave them out completely, and it won’t affect the cake part.
Make sure to get all the dry ingredients mixed in well by scraping the spoon at the bottom of the mug to get everything mixed in.
There might also be dry ingredients that will cling to the spoon, so scrape that off to make sure everything is mixed in.
Heat the mixture on high for 90 seconds in a microwave.
Enjoy your brownie in a cup but watch out for the chocolate chips because they can be really hot. They’ll probably be at the bottom of the mug, but they can end up anywhere in the mix, so be careful not to burn your mouth!
If this doesn’t work for some reason, you probably didn’t have enough flour in it. I’ve made this recipe multiple times and it worked except for the one time I didn’t put enough flour in it. It just didn’t cook completely but I could still eat it!

I give you tips on how to make things, but I don’t feel the need to drag things out, so you won’t need to search for the recipes in the articles.
