Chocolate Brownie Recipe for One (Brownie In a Mug)
Description
The Chocolate Brownie Recipe for One uses melted butter mixed with sugar, cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, and water to form a chocolate batter with chocolate chips stirred through. This batter is microwaved in a mug for one minute, then rested briefly before serving. The technique produces a warm, tender brownie that is moist inside with a soft texture due to the quick microwave cooking.
Chocolate chips inside and on top add pockets of melted richness. The recipe’s short cooking time helps retain moisture and prevents rubbery texture. The mug form allows for single-serve convenience ideal for small cravings or portion control.
Serve the brownie warm or cooled slightly, optionally topped with whipped cream or ice cream for extra indulgence. Adjust microwave times as needed to avoid overcooking, which can dry out the brownie.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter melted, unsalted
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder

- 2 1/2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips

Notes
- Monitor cooking time carefully to avoid a dry or rubbery texture from overcooking.
- Microwave wattages vary; you may need to adjust time and experiment for best results.

- You can combine the batter in a bowl before transferring it to the mug for microwave cooking.
- Vegetable or canola oil can substitute melted butter if neutral oil is preferred.
