    This is a hard one for me to rate and review: 1) I cooked it 20 seconds less time than stated, so just watch it. 2) I found this microwave brownie to be very delicate. It IS a mug recipe, but I wanted to turn it out and it crumbled all to pieces. Probably not a problem if eaten in the mug. 3) This recipe calls for no added sugar. It is very minimally sweet. I would have given this 3 stars, but when I offered it to my grandson who doesn’t eat a lot of sweets, he gobbled it right up and thought it was great. So, 4 stars it is!

    I didn’t have any powdered chocolate milk mix and instead used chocolate milk syrup and added it after the other ingredients along with some sugar. I also used butter because I didn’t have any vegetable oil and thought that olive oil would leave a weird taste. It came out tasting like a TV dinner brownie and I drizzled the chocolate syrup on top and stirred it around a little.

    omg it is just amazing I wanted a brownie so bad and i think this is the best brownie I have ever had

    This was the best thing I’ve ever made in a mug. I think the lack of egg really helped to avoid that spongey weird mug cake texture. The NesQuick powder gave it an extra chocolately and rich flavor. I swapped the olive oil for the same amount of melted butter. So so so good.

    This is by far the best mug brownie recipe I’ve tried! (and ive tried like a million of them, somehow something always manages to come out wrong) I added brown sugar (1/4 cup) and replaced the oil with the same quantity of butter(but only because i dont like using oil on cakes).
    It cooked perfectly in 2 mins and the texture was great too.

    • 7 years ago

    I used about 2 tbsp extra water and about 1 tbsp of chocolate sauce, cooked it for about 1:35 came out perfectly

    Very awesome! Perfect quick chocolate fix.

    It was VERY crumbly, and the taste wasn’t all that great. It was OKAY, and overall not pretty good. Must improve.

    I really liked it. I had low expectations after reading some of the reviews, but I made it anyway since I was craving a brownie/chocolate really bad. I did what one of the reviews said and cooked it for 1 min. 35 sec. and thank you for the tip or else it would have burned. I also added 1-1/2 tbs of sugar and 1 tbs of Nutella, and I think that’s what saved the brownie from not being sweet enough. I love sweets so if you’re not a sweet tooth person, go easy on the sugar.

    Didn’t work for me at all!! I followed the instructions exactly and still came out as powder and no brownie..

    • 5 years ago

    Its a little dry but soft (not like a brownie) but other than that its really good!

    • 4 years ago

    It came out ok but it needed a little extra taste so I added. 1 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and it tasted like a regular brownie

    • 4 years ago

    It was pretty good, and it worked out well but I recommend you use butter or corn oil instead of olive oil, because olive oil kind of gives it a nasty aftertaste. Besides that it was amazing!

    It was legit a rock, it smoked up that whole house, it?s probably my fault for the outcome, but I wouldn?t try it again.

    • 3 years ago

    Cooked it 20 seconds less and it’s perfect. Added some Caramel sauce as well. Easiest mug recipe I’ve ever done. No explosion in the microwave for once.

    • 3 years ago

    So simple and quick! I loved how it turned out and there was less measuring than other mug brownie recipes. I used vegetable oil instead of olive as a personal preference. I also added a heavy drizzle of chocolate syrup to the mix to sweeten it up a little because some of the reviews said it wasn’t very sweet. This is the best mug brownie I have had! Satisfied my warm, gooey, chocolate craving. Oh, and I only cooked it for 1 minute since I prefer less done and there isn’t an egg to worry about.

    • 3 years ago

    I made this exactly how the directions stated, and I loved it! I did add some milk chocolate chips on top right after I took it out of the microwave, which added the perfect amount of sweetness. I think this is definitely a hit or miss with some people since everyone?s microwaves can be different. But I watched mine and checked it every 45 secs and when it seemed done I took it out after 2 ish mins.

    the olive oil left a really weird taste, it was a bit bland too. I think melted butter would?ve been a good substitute, would?ve made it a bit richer. I recommend adding raspberries either in it or on top!!

    • 2 years ago

    Exactly what I was looking for.

    • 2 years ago

    I used a complete pancake mix instead of flour, omitted the salt, and substituted olive oil for coconut oil. I also drizzled some almond butter on top at the end. Very fudgy and rich! I had to drink a glass of coconut milk with it.
    Definitely kicked my sugar craving.

    • 2 years ago

    I tried it twice and I even used exact measurements. It still did not work. But on the plus side, the flavor was amazing.

    • 2 years ago

    So i used milk instead of water and followed the rest as instructed and it came out perfect. I dont understand how people are messing this up, dry ingredients first then wet, mix till no lumps and smooth throw it in the microwave for like a minute 40-55 and boom

    • 1 year ago

    Its ok its a bit strong but I like it!

    • 1 year ago

    This is so delicious. ?? ?? this is the third time I made this. I use milk and butter instead of water and oil that some have suggested and still very good. I would also use the same ingredients to make a chocolate sauce on top. So happy now I can have a brownie anytime. Thank you for this.

    • 1 year ago

    Bland taste and bad texture. I would recommend adding additional things to spice it up.

    • 1 year ago

    Easy quick treat. Works perfectly ??

    • 10 months ago

    Tasteless and very dry.. maybe the cook time is too long?
