- Cooking Method: Baking
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 20 minutes
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small ramekin or oven-safe mug.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter by heating it for about 30 seconds.
- Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the melted butter. Stir until smooth.
- Mix in the egg yolk, blending well. No rogue egg whites allowed!
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined. No over-mixing here, unless you’re aiming for a brick!
- Fold in the chocolate chips. Because more chocolate is always better.
- Pour the batter into the prepared ramekin or mug.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the top is set but still slightly fudgy in the center. A toothpick should come out mostly clean, with a few moist crumbs.
- Let it cool for 5 minutes before diving in, if you can wait that long!
Suggestions
Go wild with your fudge brownie by adding nuts, white chocolate chips, or a swirl of peanut butter before baking. Top it off with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra layer of indulgence. To make it gluten-free, simply swap the all-purpose flour for a gluten-free alternative. Enjoy your brownie with a tall glass of milk or a shot of espresso for an experience worth repeating!
