Brownie In a Cup

Today is February 14th, the day we celebrate love with chocolate and little hearts.

If you haven’t had time to prepare dessert, I have the perfect solution for you.

It only takes a few minutes to make.

Brownie In A Cup

Because it uses paleo-friendly ingredients, this dessert is healthy and will satisfy your sweet tooth.

My 16-year old daughter made it herself.  It’s so easy.  She used a regular mug and baked it in the microwave for 3 minutes.

This being said, we all know that microwaves destroys 50 to 90% of the vital energy and phyto-nutrients in foods.  

So why not oven bake this for 15-20 minutes instead.

You can top it with whipped coconut cream and some cocoa powder.

Decadently delicious!
