Working with Gluten-Free Flours
When working with or measuring gluten-free flour, spoon the flour into the measuring cup and level. Do not scoop your measuring cup into the gluten-free flour.
The best method really is to weigh the gluten-free flour, but I don't have the ingredient weights for this vegan mug brownie yet.

Ingredients in Vegan Mug Brownies
Gluten-Free Flour - If you're not gluten-free, you can use regular AP flour. We used Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 in this vegan mug brownie recipe.
Brown Sugar - We love the rich flavor that brown sugar adds, but you can use granulated sugar, if desired.
Cocoa - Remember to buy a high-quality cocoa.
Oil - You can use your oil of choice or melted and cooled vegan butter.
Dairy-Free Milk - We used plain almond milk.
Vanilla - Use a pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.
Chocolate Chips - We used Enjoy Life Foods baking morsels, but you can use your favorite vegan chocolate chips.

What other milk can I use in this vegan mug brownie?
For this recipe, I used almond milk, but you can use your favorite dairy-free milk, flavored or plain. You can use regular milk or your milk of choice.
I recommend you don't use buttermilk or full-fat coconut milk. The milk is too thick, and has too much fat for the rest of the ingredients.

My favorite way to eat ice cream is when it is an ice cream cake esp for a celebration. I like making them. I try to be good and only take the size piece I should, and hope there will be leftovers, but there never is.

I prefer my ice cream in a cake cone. The waffle cones are good but I like having the last bite of the cake cone with all the ice cream stuffed at the bottom. 🙂
