I saved this tutorial a few years go and used to make these all the time. +1

Cleaning that mug... mUgh.
HeyImThatGuy
I saw this several years ago for the first time, I still make one on occasion because of how convenient it is.
coolfriendlynicebuddyguy
So how do you make a 'mug'?
tempuslynn
You can also substitute butter for the oil (melt it first), throw in an egg for a more cake like brownie, or add in some chocolate chips.
Kathleen1o7
Just tried it. It tastes like those sad little brownie squares that came in the frozen TV dinners you loved when you were a kid. Not bad.
does making it to "most viral" mean front page? This has never happened to me before I don't know what's going on, but much excite
muffinmurderer
It means you gotta get checked, go to the nearest clinic.

Any imgurian bakers know how much gluten free flour I can use for this? Wifey has celiac but would love this.
100Vanilla
Tested and works!!! For a 2min brownie it tastes pretty good too.

Instructions unclear, edibles kicking in.
kaidell
Shucks... I have all of these ingredients. Now I HAVE to make it. Ugh. Ugh.
NuttyNatsu
My aunt gave me a mug with the recipe on the outside =D
aaronsgirl
No ice cream in the house so I poked a few holes in it after cooking and poured a little half and half on top. Yummm!
Sanguiluna
If you leave coffee in the mug for a week you get the same result, only that version will probably kill you.

May I ask a question: why the spring water?
Not sure. I used filtered tap water.

Had low expectations. I liked it when I didn't think of it as brownie.

2 tbs water, 2 tbs melted butter, tsp vanilla, pinch of salt, 4 tbs sugar, 2 tbs cocoa, 4 tbs flour. Mix wet, add sugar & cocoa, then flour
WhatCanIDoYouFor
Omg, I made this today! I added less sugar though. 4 tablespoons was unnecessary imo.

That's what I'm talking about, butter! I use salted and skip the punch.
YoSoyMilk
Misunderstood direction. Consumed three piles of cocaine.
DoorbyTheHouseShelf
Glad someone else saw this. Cocaine. Cocaine. Heroin. Cocaine. Olives. Vodka. Ice cream. Sounds good to me.
ConfusedAxis
The olive oil part of this always bothered me, but after a quick google, olive oil flavor can compliment the chocolate flavor, apparently.
u2bist
Nevertheless, for sweets I stick with canola oil.
I go straight to the butter land o lakes salted and skip the pinch. Use a little more butter than it calls for oil.
and melt it
IAmInGreatPainPleaseHelpMe
I substitute milk in place of water, add 1 tbsp of cocoa, and add a bit more flower.
kjb72
Daisies or roses?
Switch408
my sister made brownies with olive oil once and they were disgusting. so I still don't trust it
maaaaadness
Complement (sorry :()
Huh, for some reason I always thought those two words were interchangeable. Thanks internet stranger!
tutorp
As I commented in a separate comment, before noticing this: I prefer to use real butter. You've got a microwave, so just melt it first. :-)
DataLady
I use olive oil for nearly everything requiring oil these days. Don't notice the flavor a bit.
AlwaysAbibliophobia
The batter tastes gross but the final product is awesome.
124ImaginationMonster
extra light olive oil is great for baking
Frelock
I once made regular box brownies with olive oil. Would not recommend. I'll be using butter for this one, I think.
Imjusthereforfood
I can't taste the difference of any cooked oil.
soph1992
I use 2tbsp melted butter instead
snowdrift
or use melted butter. yay flavor
svanhild
In Spain we use it for absolutely everything, sweet or not.
senio
same in portugal
silverbean
i would use butter
ZOMGNO
We use grapeseed oil. Practically no flavour
AmandaT1013
I use cannabutter and it makes this treat twice as nice
ChubbsIsMyName
You can always use coconut oil in its place. It doesn't have a flavor.
WeAreAllStoriesInTheEnd
There are two kinds of coconut oil. One smells/tastes like coconut, the other smells/tastes like nothing.
And I was talking about the flavorless/odorless kind.
trotthedot
I made weed infused coconut oil and the flavor is absolutely amazing.
Kjayxo
Me too!
Weed is tight!!!!
mollyMcTrunkins73
I despise coconut and cannot agree... Coconut oil actually does have a flavor. If used in baking, I taste it ever time. Ewww. *shrugs*
judassong
People who cook eggs in coconut oil are an abomination. Especially if they lie and tell you otherwise.
IAmThePermabannedAccountOfMyNameIsMrTorgue
Refined vs Unrefined
Everyone tastes things differently, I guess :)
I know itz truuuuue ;)
Hemispheres
I don't know that the 2T of oil in it would affect the taste that much. I am a fan of grape seed oil. No flavor, high smoke point.
cartmanstits
Two tablespoons is a ton compared to the size of a brownie
That's what I use when I cook steaks on the stove.
Cast Iron and steak FTW : )
gewalt
its not grape seed, its rapeseed, and since the name is so stupid, its being rebranded as canola oil nowadays
SSJacobs
It is grapeseed oil. Canola is something else.
Both exist actually. You can buy grapeseed oil on Amazon.
my bad man
flamingflamingo
Use bacon grease.
DuckyofDeath123
This... this might just be genius.
ashipthatshipsshippingships
Ran out of olive oil so I used scalp oil. Flavor slightly different, but more texture. And yes, I did vomit while I was typing this.
