Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
- 2 tablespoons gluten free 1:1 baking flour (e.g., Bob's Red Mill)
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons soy milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Add-ins
- 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the cacao powder, gluten-free flour, sugar, and salt to a microwave-safe mug or ramekin. Whisk together thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all dry components.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the soy milk and vanilla extract. Mix well until the batter is smooth and consistent with no lumps.
- Incorporate Coconut Oil: Add the coconut oil and mix again until fully integrated into the batter, providing moisture and richness.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the dark chocolate chips into the batter for gooey chocolate pockets throughout the brownie.
- Microwave the Brownie: Cook the mixture in the microwave at 30-second intervals. Total cooking time varies by microwave, but around 50 seconds works well. The brownie should be set but still moist and fudgy in the center.

- For a nutty flavor, add a tablespoon of chopped nuts before microwaving.
- Ensure your mug is microwave-safe to avoid any accidents.
