Chocolate Mocha Mug Brownie


On some nights, our neighbour Pia drops by to visit the kids, the dog (and us) when her brothers go to Air Cadets League of Canada. Just before Remembrance day, Pia dropped by and was looking for some instant coffee, and she was carrying a mug filled with some batter and a recipe on a piece of paper.

It was time to make a brownie.

I'd seen several cake, and brownie in a mug recipes here and there, but never got around to actually trying one. And this one is a mocha brownie, so even better!

Chocolate Mocha Mug Brownie

2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tbsp water
3-4 drops vanilla extract
dash salt
pinch instant coffee
3 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp flour
  1. In an 8 oz mug, stir together oil, water, vanilla, salt and coffee.
  2. Add sugar, cocoa powder and flour, stir, and microwave on high for one minute.
  3. Let cool for at least one minute before eating.

  4. What an interesting recipe! I've come across a few microwave cake recipes recently but haven't tried one yet. I love brownies so maybe this is the one to make!
