Very, Very Exciting Recipe Update:
A short time after I published this recipe, Trim Healthy Mama reached out and asked if they could use it in their bible ! This was a dream come true – I still ca n’t believe I get to see one of my favorite recipes in print ! You can find it on page 405 of Trim Healthy Table !
Reading: Brownie Batter in a Mug
This low-carb brownie batter in a mug has become my go-to dessert for cocoa cravings ! I love promptly desserts. I particularly love to make smaller serve desserts to ensure that :
a ) I do n’t eat excessively much ( flush goodly desserts can lead to calorie overload ) ;
b ) I can drill my ninja skills and try to make these without one of my five kids seeing ( and subsequently stealing ) my extra treat ;
hundred ) I can fake my people out and make them think I ‘m eating something dreadfully unhealthy. I ( normally ) end up confessing that this is actually a healthy dessert, but by then, it ‘s excessively late, and I ‘ve eaten it all. ( Do n’t worry, it ‘s easy enough to make a second brownie, and I ‘ll wholly do it ! I ‘m not THAT selfish ) .
After my single-serving chocolate chip cookie recipe, I wanted to tackle a elf – well, not a brownie, precisely, but gooey brownie BATTER. I came up with TONS Of brownie-in-a-mug-type recipes, but when I last got to this one, I knew I ‘d found a winner. It looks cooked, but the inside stays gooey and delightful, more like elf dinge. This is in truth chocolate-y .
You decidedly wo n’t want to cook this longer than 40 seconds to a infinitesimal, because overcooking changes the texture and messes with the spirit. At about 30-40 seconds, you ‘ll want to pull this out of the microwave and look for a gooey consistency – that ‘s when it ‘s perfect ! Let it cool, and then enjoy the brownie-battery good. Tasting this cold, it tasted like elf dinge, but I think it good needs a little heat to blend the flavors. Microwaving it for about 30 seconds was just long enough to melt the chocolate chips a little – so you have options ! I barely want to note here that this is not a recipe for a bake patty or muffin in a countenance – it ‘s supposed to be gooey !
This recipe is egg-free, indeed if you worry about eating undercooked eggs – you can stop. Worrying about that, I mean. Because there are none in this recipe. The end .
I did notice a HUGE deviation when I tested this with Hershey ‘s cocoa powder vs. a nice one – the better timbre cocoa powder makes it taste way better, so I in truth recommend going with something like Ghirardelli. But I think it tastes good either way – the better cocoa gunpowder just gives a little extra something .
This is a Trim Healthy Mama “ S ” recipe .

Dessert
Serves :

Ingredients
- Wet Ingredients:
- 1 Tablespoon melted coconut oil
- 3 Tablespoons unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Dry Ingredients:
- 1½ Tablespoons cocoa powder (you can reduce to 1 T cocoa powder if you don’t want it to be as intense)
- 1 Tablespoon THM Gentle Sweet OR 2 tsp Swerve plus a good pinch of pure stevia extract
- 2½ Tablespoons THM Baking Blend
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 2 pinches of salt
- 2 Tablespoons Lily’s Baking Chips
Instructions
- Melt coconut oil (I like to melt mine in the ramekin or mug I’ll be using to make the brownie batter; that way I don’t have to spray it with cooking spray) and cool.
- Meanwhile, mix dry ingredients well in a small bowl.
- Add vanilla and almond milk to melted coconut oil and stir to combine.
- Add dry ingredients to wet and mix thoroughly.
- Stir in Lily’s chocolate chips. You may want to taste your mixture here to check the sweetness.
- Pour into a microwave-safe ramekin or mug.
- Microwave for 30-40 seconds. It should puff up a bit, but still look undercooked. You may microwave up to a minute, but I don’t recommend anything past that.
- Let it cool before eating.
