Description This is a tutorial I made with , since he sucks at English and I suck at, well, having a microwave.

So if it's disgusting - kill him, I never tried the thing!

Also, enjoy the photos, because that's the best they get. Even though he was making them with his left hand they're still helluva better then mine, since he, uh, knows how to make photos and owns a real camera.

Or it's just begginers luck, who knows!

Recipe was found randomly on the interbutts.

Let me know what you think <3

-edit- thanks to for pointing one important thing out - that's not vanilla extract, that's just an aroma :3 Fixed that.

Congrats on the DD!

I used a soup spoon and vanilla extract (I've never even heard of vanilla aroma before 0_o). I have a 1300 watt microwave so I put it in for 2 and a half minutes. I was worried that it would be hard to get out. Turned out a bit dense, but tasted good. <3

ALovelyLie [2010-07-13 04:52:58 +0000 UTC]

It looks delicious! And so easy to make. x3

But is there a difference between between vanilla extract and vanilla aroma? Because I've never heard of the latter before. o-o

howtomake In reply to ALovelyLie [2010-07-20 04:46:49 +0000 UTC]

Vanilla aroma is what you can easily get in stores - the oily, vanilla-scented substance. It does, however, not contain real vanilla seeds. Vanilla extract is something you can make yourself, by buying few vanilla canes, and putting them in high percent bottle of alcohol, like rum, and then waiting for a month, or a month and a half. And that's the real thing, best for cooking!

You can use either for this recipe, of course

I like how fast it is... but is it moist? Looks kinda dry in the picture. ^_^*

howtomake In reply to Shiver-Slice [2010-07-20 04:47:23 +0000 UTC]

I guess it depends, but it's not as moist as a real brownie, unfortunately.

BitterSweetAngel13 [2010-07-13 03:11:14 +0000 UTC]

could one use butter instead of oil???
not a fan of oil...
seems like a good recipie...
thanks (^_^)

howtomake In reply to BitterSweetAngel13 [2010-07-20 04:48:23 +0000 UTC]

I think you could try using melted butter instead of oil, not sure how it would turn out though make sure to let me know if you try it!

Tagyr [2010-07-13 03:05:15 +0000 UTC]

Adjust recipe according to taste. Its also quite flexible, if you don't have one thing or another. can be made eggless and with water rather than milk (I sometimes forget that I ran out of those ) The mug can be a pain to clean though.

I really like this tutorial, nice and simple. l am a bit curious though, you say "Even though he was making them with his left hand" Did he hurt his other hand?

👍: 0 ⏩: 2

howtomake In reply to Tagyr [2010-07-20 04:49:35 +0000 UTC]

Haha, no! He was making the brownie with the right hand, so he had to use left one for taking pictures

Does it really work out without the egg? I have to try that!

Tagyr In reply to howtomake [2010-07-20 05:03:18 +0000 UTC]

You have to mess with the recipe some, but yes. Its got a different texture but it still tastes good. I thought we had had eggs but we didn't so :/ There are some things that lay around kitchens that you could use as a quick kind of substitute, too.
