How to Make 3 Minute Microwave Brownies
- In a microwave-safe bowl, beat 2 large eggs until light and fluffy (about 1 minute).
- Beat in ¾ cup granulated sugar and a pinch of salt until well combined.
- Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
- Stir in ¼ cup (½ stick) melted unsalted butter.
- Gradually add ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder and ½ cup all-purpose flour, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into a greased 6-inch microwave-safe dish. If using a turntable, ensure it's in place.
- Microwave on high for 3-4 minutes, or until edges are set and the center is slightly moist. Microwave ovens vary, start with 3 minutes and check for doneness.
- Let the brownies cool in the dish for a few minutes before cutting and serving. They will continue to cook as they cool.
- Optional: Top with your favorite frosting or a dusting of powdered sugar.
