Ingredients
From scratch:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips
- 1 egg yolk
- 2½ tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
From mix:
- ⅓ cup Renewal Mill Dark Chocolate Brownie Mix
- ¼ cup milk, or coffee or plant based substitute
Preparation

- Add the remaining ingredients and mix until a smooth batter is formed. Clean the sides of the Anyday with a spatula.
- Cook uncovered for 1-2 minutes or until the surface is cooked and not shiny. Note: Start with 1 minute and add more time if needed.
- Allow the brownie to fully cool before cutting.
From mix:
- Mix the Renewal Mill Dark Chocolate Brownie with milk and stir to combine.
- Cook uncovered for 1-2 minutes or until the brownie looks spongy and bubbly on the top.
Serving suggestions & tips
- Sprinkle your favorite candy, nuts, or pretzels over the top.
- Swirl melted white chocolate into the top of the brownie and add dehydrated raspberries or strawberries.
Recipe notes
- For better results, mix the batter in a separate bowl, spray the Anyday with vegetable spray, and pour the batter in it before cooking.
- For a boxed mix, follow the instructions on the back of the box and pour the batter into the Anyday: For Large Shallow: Cook in the microwave for 4-5 minutes. For Medium Shallow: Split batter between two Medium Shallow Anyday dishes and cook in the microwave for 3-4 minutes. For Small Dishes: Divide batter among four Small Dishes and cook in the microwave for 1-2 minutes each.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
