Minute Microwave Brownie

When you need a HEAVY dose of chocolate and gooey indulgence this is it. Not your everyday dessert but a once in a while I need something strong. It is decadent and gooey and probably a little bit more than 3 servings. I love chocolate. Like love love it. So when I say it's heavy I'm serious. It's hard to know because of different microwaves and bowl sizes so you have to watch it careful. I like things extra gooey too so it's very much so to preference. 

INGREDIENTS

  •  1/4 cup granulated sugar
  •  3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  •  3 tablespoons water
  •  2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
  •  2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
  •  1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  •  pinch salt, to taste
  •  1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  •  1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  •  ice cream, for serving

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. To a small microwave-safe bowl (we use our smaller white grown up cereal bowls which are a bit bigger than a kid ikea bowl), add the granulated sugar, cocoa, water, oil, brown sugar, vanilla, salt, and whisk to combine.
  2. Add the flour and stir until just combined, don’t overmix.
  3. Add the chocolate chips and stir to combine.
  4. Cook on high power in the microwave for about 1 minute, or until the brownie is as set in the center as desired. All microwaves, bowls, ingredients, and preferences for doneness vary, so you will need to experiment with how long it takes to cook given your variables. I recommend stopping to check at the 45-second mark and going from there in 15-second bursts as necessary.
  5. Ours took at least 2.5 minutes if I remember right. 
  6. Add ice cream or whipped topping and serve immediately. Brownie is best warm and fresh.
