Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Combine flour, cocoa, and sugar in a microwave-safe bowl and whisk until no lumps remain.

    Crack eggs into the bowl one at a time, stirring well after each addition until smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in vanilla extract until the batter is shiny and uniform throughout.

    Microwave the batter in a greased 8-inch square dish for 5–6 minutes until a toothpick poked in the center shows fudgy crumbs.
