Edible Brownie Batter (No Eggs, Ready in 5 Minutes!)
This edible brownie batter is rich, fudgy, and packed with deep chocolate flavor — made without eggs, heat-treated for safety, and ready in just 5 minutes. Eat it by the spoonful, use it as a dip, or freeze it into bite-sized treats.
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¾ cup + 1 tablespoon (100g) all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter dairy or vegan butter
- ⅓ cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated white sugar
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3-5 tablespoons milk dairy or plant-based
- ½ cup chocolate chips or chunks semisweet, dark, milk, or dairy-free
Instructions
- Add the flour to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on 70% power for 45 seconds to 1½ minutes. Whisk well to break up any clumps.
- Whisk the cocoa powder and salt into the heat-treated flour. Set aside.
- In a separate medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter on medium power in 30-second intervals until fully melted.
- Whisk the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract into the melted butter until smooth.
- Slowly whisk the flour mixture into the butter mixture until no streaks remain. Stir in milk one tablespoon at a time until your desired consistency is reached.
- Fold in the chocolate chips. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to eat.
Notes
Heat-treating the flour: Microwaving on 70% power eliminates harmful bacteria in raw flour. If you prefer to skip this step, substitute oat flour or almond flour, which are naturally safe to eat raw.
No microwave? Melt the butter on the stovetop over low heat. Heat-treat the flour by spreading it on a rimmed baking sheet and baking at 350°F for 5–10 minutes, until it reaches 160°F.
Gluten-free: Use a 1-to-1 gluten-free flour blend, or oat/almond flour.
Vegan: Use vegan butter, plant-based milk, and dairy-free chocolate chips.
Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container for 3–5 days. Freeze for up to 3 months — great portioned into an ice cube tray or rolled into balls.
