Why This Recipe Stands Out
This dessert is perfect for when you want something sweet in a flash. It’s rich, chocolatey, and ready in minutes without any fuss. Plus, it’s made right in a mug, so there’s minimal cleanup.
Cooking Techniques
- Use fresh cocoa powder for the best chocolate flavor.
- Avoid overcooking to keep the brownie moist and fudgy.
- Stir the batter well to make sure all ingredients are fully combined.

Directions
Stir the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt right in a microwave-safe mug. Next, pour in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, then stir everything together with a spatula, making sure to scrape up any dry bits stuck to the bottom. Pop the mug in the microwave and cook on high for about a minute. The brownie will still be a bit gooey in the center—that’s how it should be! If it looks too wet for your liking, zap it for another 30 seconds, but don’t go over two minutes or it might turn cakey. Let it sit for about five minutes to cool down a bit—though honestly, it’s hard to wait that long! Then dig in and enjoy your quick, chocolatey treat.
Creative Serving Ideas
Enjoy it warm straight from the mug, or add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for extra indulgence. A drizzle of chocolate syrup or a sprinkle of nuts can also add a nice touch.
Leftover Care Tips
This dessert is best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat gently in the microwave before serving to restore its gooey texture.
