1 Minute Microwave Brownie for 1

4 TBSP Flour (regular all-purpose)
4 TBSP Sugar
2 TBSP Cocoa (the dry powdered type of cocoa)
Pinch of salt

Blend all dry ingredients with a fork to break up lumps of the cocoa.

Mix all these ingredients together in a mug. Since some mugs really aren't good in the microwave, I like to use a Pyrex measuring cup as my "mug."

Add:

2 TBSP Vegetable Oil
2 TBSP water
A couple drops of Vanilla flavoring (optional)

Blend all well using a spoon.

Cook on High for one minute. If you have a really powerful microwave, try cooking it for a minute on power 8 or 9.

Is a nice fudgy brownie consistency, even nicer if you have some vanilla ice cream to put on top! Some like to add a few chocolate chips. You could also sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top while the brownie is still hot so that they melt and become "frosting."

Let it cool for at least 3-5 minutes before you try to eat it though!

GIFT IDEA:
Measure and mix the dry ingredients in a Christmas food-safe gift baggie & put the bag (with the dry mix in it) in a Christmas mug. Attach a pretty card to explain how much water and vegetable oil to add and cooking instructions. This would be a nice little gift idea for a teacher.

Christy's Mom's Peach Cobbler Recipe

I like this one, because the version I make uses a commercial cake mix. I'm sure this version is healthier!

4-6 small to medium fresh peaches

1 stick of butter (melted)

1 cup of sugar

1 cup of self rising flour

1 cup of milk

(1) Melt butter in 3-4 quart pyrex dish in microwave (I melted it in a small pan on the stove then put it in a baking dish that was not pyrex so either way is ok)

(2) In bowl, mix flour and sugar together--add milk and mix or stir until blended.

(3) Pour flour mixture into pyrex dish with butter DO NOT MIX THEM TOGETHER( make sure melted butter is already in the dish)

(4) Pour freshly sliced peaches into dish over flour mixture DO NOT MIX THEM TOGETHER ( sometimes I will sprinkle a very small amount of sugar on top of the mixture--less than a 1/4 teaspoon if I want it a little sweeter)

(5) Bake at 375 degrees until brown on top.  Done in about 30-40 minutes.
