Instructions
Melt the Butter
Place butter in a large microwave-safe mug and microwave on high for 20 seconds until fully melted then stir briefly.
Mix the Brownie Batter
Add cocoa powder, sugar, flour, and egg yolk to the melted butter and stir vigorously until a smooth thick batter forms with no lumps of flour remaining.
Add Chocolate Chips and Microwave
Fold chocolate chips into the batter then microwave on high for 60 to 75 seconds until the edges are set but the center still looks slightly underdone.
Rest Before Eating
Let the brownie rest in the mug for 2 minutes as it will continue cooking from residual heat and become perfectly fudgy in the center.
