Preparation
- Grease a 6 x 3-inch microwave-safe glass container with nonstick spray. Line with parchment paper.
- In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and 2 tablespoons of the chocolate chips. Microwave on high power until melted, about 30 seconds.
- Whisk the melted butter and chocolate until smooth, then add the sugar and egg and whisk to combine. Sift in the cocoa powder and stir with a rubber spatula to incorporate. Fold in some of the remaining 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips, reserving a few for topping.
- Pour the batter into the prepared container and smooth in an even layer with an offset spatula or the back of a spoon. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top.
- Microwave on high power for 2 minutes, until batter is set and the chocolate chips on top have melted.
- Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!
