    PLEASE START READING THE ENTIRE THREAD and stop bumping it

    This is not 101 calories, this is more like 400 calories. The numbers are wrong.

    it can't be 101 calories - 2 tablespoons of oil is 240 calories.

    I'm so going to try this. I freaking love brownies!

    Thanks for clarifying the calories. I'll try the applesauce instead of oil.

    this could probably be made for that few cals by substituting pb2 for flour, applesauce for the oil, and stevia for sugar. a few baking tweaks I've learned from dashing dish : ) I'll enter it into the calc and check

    110 cals (105 w/o coffee) the way I described- Here's my version

    2 (tbs) applesauce ( I use santa cruz organic) 15 cals
    2 water (tbs) (0 cals)
    1 drop vanilla extract (1 cal)
    1 dash salt (0 cals)
    1 pinch instant coffee (powder optional) (5 cals)
    1(tbs) stevia or 2 packets(0 cals)
    2 unsweetened cocoa powder (tbs)( I use saco)( 40 cals)
    2 (tbs) peanut flour ( I use chocolate pb2) (45 cals)

    1 In a 12 oz coffee mug, mix water, oil, salt, vanilla and coffee, if using. Whisk well.
    2 Add cocoa powder, whisk well. Add sugar, whisk well. Add flour, whisk well.
    3 Microwave for 60-75 seconds: 60 seconds for a molten bottom, 75 for uniformly done. I normally choose 60.
    4 Enjoy with a spoon and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Careful, brownie will be hot.

    I skip the ice cream, obviously, and didn't add coffee to mine (though that sounds delicious) Turned out really well!

    I just looked it all up, and this particular recipe, as I read it, is almost 600 calories.
    If it is supposed to be tsp(teaspoon), and NOT tbs(tablespoon), then yes, it is possible it might be fewer calories. But as it is written, it is just as bad for you as regular mug brownies.

    Sorry to burst everyone's bubble :( I was excited for this recipe.

    Those are not 101 calories, 1tb of vegetable oil is like 120 calories alone
