Last week I shared with you a very quick & easy single serve 60-second microwave brownie recipe. I mentioned that sometimes to add a gooeyness that I crave I like to top the hot brownie with this pourable chocolate frosting.
It turns this quick & easy treat into something more like a molten chocolate cake. (Hey don’t judge, sometimes a girl just can’t get enough chocolate!) It’s so easy to whip up & I always have these ingredients in my pantry. No more frosting in a plastic tub for me! I promised to share the recipe with you and here it is, my friends. Get ready to be amazed!
I usually use the 1/2 recipe for a couple of mug brownies for RancherMan & myself. I originally found this recipe several months ago at Our Heritage Of Health and she touted the recipe as being a healthy superfood since it uses honey, cocoa and coconut oil. But I loved it because there’s no cooking. You just stir it together and pour! Or you can heat it up and use it as a hot-fudge topping – OH YUM!
I amended it slightly to suit what is usually in my pantry and it’s become a go-to recipe in the Taylor household since then. Check it out!

You’re right, sometimes you just can’t get enough chocolate! This recipe sounds delicious!! Thanks for sharing!!
LOL – it’s a rare day indeed Keri when I actually get enough chocolate. (snicker)
Oh my…this sounds so good. I love chocolate stuffs with coffee in them!! Thank you so much for sharing this…I found you on Sweet Inspirations! 🙂
I’m with you Martie – chocolate with coffee = DELICIOUS!
Yum, yum, definitely going to give these a try, the coffee is a great idea. Thanks for sharing at Good Morning Mondays, I really enjoy your posts you are a wealth of information. Blessings to you my friend.
Reading through the comments it looks like I could substitute water for the coffee – right? I can’t stand the taste of coffee, but other than that it looks really yummy.
Absolutely Jendi, substituting water would be fine & I wonder about substituting milk for a milk-chocolate flavor? Hummm….. might be really good!
Yum!! Thank you so much for linking up at Tasty Tuesday! Your recipe has been pinned to the Tasty Tuesday Pinterest board! Please join us again this week!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This might just become my emergency chocolate.
“Emergency Chocolate”, LOVE IT!
Why the cold coffee?
Typically if a chocolate recipe calls for water in the ingredients I always substitute cold coffee. The coffee flavor just intensifies the chocolate flavor instead of watering it down like adding water would. (see, I told ya I was a chocoholic! LOL)
good to know! Thanks!
Well how can I pass up chocolate with such a high review! Chocolate is my name, chocolate is my game! ha ha ha. Thanks for sharing, I’ll be making it!
Ummmm Terry, I can relate!
You had me at “quick” and “chocolate”! A great combination! But when I saw the healthier ingredients, it looked like the PERFECT combination!!! I will be making this, thank you!
Thank you also for sharing at the Art of Home-Making Mondays this week 🙂
It’s so easy there’s no reason not to JES. As a confirmed chocoholic I can attest it’s dee-LICIOUS!
