How long do you microwave a brownie mug cake?

Microwave the mug on high for 45 seconds, then check the center. Because microwave wattages vary, add another 15 seconds only if the middle still looks wet. Stop as soon as the center is set, since extra time dries the brownie out and turns it rubbery. The whole recipe goes from mug to spoon in about one minute.

What size mug should you use for a brownie mug cake?

A small mug that holds about 8 ounces, or one cup, works best. It keeps this single serving of batter deep so it cooks evenly and rises without spilling over the rim. A larger mug still works, but the finished brownie will look small in the bottom, so watch the timing closely.

Why is my brownie mug cake rubbery?

A rubbery texture usually comes from overcooking or from stirring too long after the flour goes in. Cook it on high for 45 seconds and add 15 seconds only if needed, then stir the 2 tablespoons of flour just until it disappears. Overmixing develops gluten, which makes the brownie tough instead of fudgy.

Can you double a brownie mug cake recipe?

Yes. Stir a double batch together in a small bowl, then divide the batter between two mugs and microwave them. Two mug brownies often need a little more time than one, so start with 45 seconds and add 15-second bursts until both centers are set. As written, this recipe makes just one serving.
