Small Batch Brownies
Ingredients
- 3 ounces dark chocolate chopped
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cocoa powder natural or Dutch is fine
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or nuts optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and line an 8x4 loaf pan with a parchment paper sling. (If you don’t have parchment, just grease the pan really well.)
- In a small bowl, melt the chopped chocolate and the butter together. Mix in the brown sugar, egg and vanilla.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder and salt. Pour the chocolate mixture over the top and mix until barely combined. If using, add in the chocolate chips and/or nuts and mix until just incorporated or until no streaks of flour remain.
- Transfer mixture to loaf pan and bake at 325 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
