So easy an ag teacher can do it

So I have this friend and she's pretty awesome.

She's a small town country girl.

She's a phenomenal public speaker and ag advocate.

She's kind.

She's passionate. 

(She's single ;))

She can brand, cut, tag and vaccinate animals, stand up with her best gal in a wedding, 2 step and shoot a gun. 

..and she's working to improve her cooking skills.
 

And quite frankly this baffles me.  I am by no means a master in the kitchen, but its not hard to mix up a batch of cookies, throw some steaks on the grill or make spaghetti.  So when someone as talented as my above mentioned friend sets of the smoke detector at least once a week the wheels in my head start turning because SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE!  
 

Now don't get me wrong, Mr. Right will love you despite your culinary lack-of-skills, however we can at least refine them a little while you await his arrival!

So here's my solution.  Once a week recipes that are so easy "even an ag teacher can do it"  above mentioned Country Girl is not an ag teacher, her job is much much more important and waaaayyy harder, but I figure if I can cook it so can she.  So here is week one's recipe: MUG BROWNIES (because I know you have an insatiable sweet tooth :)) And yes, I know you are trying to be healthy and all that jazz, but surely you have a binge day?!


Now I know there are like 5 million  recipes for mug brownies online.  But I can't just do things the simple way and do something the same way everyone else does.  I thought the recipe I tried from Pinterest was too gewwy so I altered it a little to create this:


In a coffee mug mix:

PINCH SALT (like 2 shakes)

2TBS FLOUR

1TBS AND 2 TSP SUGAR

1TBS AND 1TSP COCOA POWDER (the kind used for baking)

MIX DRY INGREDIENTS TOGETHER

ADD:

2 TBS AND 1 TSP WATER

1TBS OIL

MIX WELL (make sure you get all the lumps out)

AND..

MICROWAVE 1 MIN (if they are still gewwy try another 15 seconds)

       ....AND...

                      ENJOY!!!

Love,

Annie
