Ingredients

3 tbsp all-purpose flour
3½ tbsp brown sugar
¼ tsp baking powder
1½ tbsp vegetable oil
3 tbsp peanut butter, of your choice

In a mixing bowl, sift together sugar, baking powder, and flour. Set aside.
In another mixing bowl, combine oil, egg whites, and peanut butter. Mix until smooth.
Fold sifted flour mixture into your peanut butter mixture until evenly combined. Do not overmix.
Lastly, fold in chocolate chips until just combined.
Transfer your mixture into microwave friendly mug. Add enough batter until it fills up to ¾ of the mug.
