Microwave brownies for two<\/h3>\n

So it’s nearly valentines day… and whilst I have never been on to celebrate valentines in particular, it seems the perfect time to post this delicious new recipe… Microwave brownies for two. <\/p>\n

This recipe has been requested for such a long time, and I have deliciously enjoyed it many many times before sharing as I am selfish like that. It may look the same as my triple chocolate microwave cookies<\/a> but the recipe is completely different. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Simple recipe<\/h3>\n

This recipe is based on plain flour, cocoa powder, sugar, water, oil and vanilla extract<\/a>… with a load of chocolate chips<\/a> chucked in. I make it sound so simple, but these ingredients are quite standard for the cupboards. <\/p>\n

I do make this in a small bowl first, and then just split the recipe between the two ramekins<\/a> that I am using. It’s easier to mix in a bowl (use a small whisk) and then you won’t get any lumps of flour. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Oil and chocolate<\/h3>\n

I found that using oil in this microwave brownie recipe (even though it sounds weird) resulted in the best brownie mixture compared to using melted butter! It also saved my having to melt the butter which was another step and takes more time. <\/p>\n

I used 100g for two brownies, which is still quite a lot considering. As the mixture is so liquid you would struggle to put larger bits of chocolate in without them sinking, so I find chips or small chunks that you have chopped work the best.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Method<\/h3>\n

With this recipe you add the dry ingredients (plain flour, light brown soft sugar and cocoa powder<\/a>) into the bowl and combine those together with a brief whisk.<\/p>\n

Then, you add the water (which is just room temp, not boiled), the oil and vanilla extract<\/a> if using! Whisk the mixture together until its combined, there are no flour lumps, and then add the chocolate chips<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Microwave<\/h3>\n

When microwaving it can be a bit hit and miss when you make them for the first time! All microwaves are different and will work differently. I find for the two brownies being microwave at the same time, it took two minutes\/120 seconds.<\/p>\n

It’s best to start at 90 seconds and see how it goes! You will be able to tell if they aren’t done enough as they will still just be liquid. Two minutes created a solid texture on top but still gooey and luscious. <\/p>\n

I then served my microwave brownies for two with some ice cream – because brownies should always be served with ice cream in my opinion! These are easy, delicious and perfect for you and a loved one. Enjoy!! <\/p>\n
