Nutella Mug Cake Brownie
Description
The Nutella Mug Cake Brownie mixes Nutella and a large egg directly in a microwave-safe mug, followed by the addition of all-purpose flour to create a smooth batter. The batter is microwaved for 45 seconds to 1 minute depending on the microwave power, until the top is set and firm, but still soft inside.
The texture is tender and moist, with Nutella imparting a rich chocolate-hazelnut flavor that is intensified by serving warm. The mug cooking method is quick and convenient for a fast single dessert without the need for an oven or mixing bowls.
This mug brownie is ideal served immediately after a brief cool-down to maintain its softness, and pairs nicely with vanilla ice cream or other toppings like whipped cream for added indulgence.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup + 1 tablespoon (3 ¼ oz/90 g) Nutella
- 1 egg large
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Notes
- Use a large (around 12 oz) microwave-safe mug to prevent overflow during cooking.
- Microwave ovens vary in power; start with 45 seconds then add time as needed to avoid overcooking.
- Mix ingredients just until combined to keep the cake tender and prevent toughness.
- Let the mug cake cool for about a minute after microwaving for best texture before eating.
- Consider topping with cocoa powder, peanut butter drizzle, ice cream, or whipped cream for extra flavor.
