Single Serve Brownie
Hello, brownie fiends. I meant to type friends, but I know you’re also all fiends for brownies. Which is exactly why we made this perfect single serve brownie recipe AKA the perfectly portioned small batch of brownies of your dreams. It comes together in a pinch when you’ve got a hankering for a brownie, but not want a whole pan lying around.
What ingredients do you need to make this single serve brownie?

And this homemade brownie recipe is actually pretty easy to make. You’ll need just 7 ingredients and one large microwave safe bowl. No fancy kitchen mixers, artisanal ingredients or crazy techniques AKA the best kind of recipe. Here’s your grocery list.
Butter
Brown Sugar
Eggs
Cocoa Powder
Salt
Vanilla Extract
Flour
Tips for making the perfect fudgy single serve brownie
This single serve brownie recipe is not rocket science, but I want to make sure you are guaranteed a decadent and perfectly chocolatey brownie, so here are all the tips you’ll need to set you up for success:
Be super precise with your measurements
Use a high quality cocoa powder
Under bake the brownies slightly
How to store these single serve brownies
The goal is to have no leftovers, but if you want to save your second brownie bite for later, don’t worry–these stay soft and fudgy for days. Be sure to let the brownies cool completely first to prevent any condensation from accumulating when you store them. Store in an airtight container or plastic bag in the fridge for up to a week!
Happy brownie baking and more importantly, happy brownie eating!

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two standard size muffin cups with cooking spray or line with cupcake liners. Set aside.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Microwave for 30 seconds, then remove and stir with a whisk. Repeat if the butter is not full melted
Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture lightens in color slightly.
Add in cocoa powder, flour, and salt and use a rubber spatula to fold together until no streaks of flour remain. If using chocolate chips, add the chocolate chips and fold to distribute.
Divide the mixture between your two prepared muffin cups and bake for roughly 18 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when the edge is set, but a knife inserted into the middle still comes out with a bit of brownie batter on it.
Allow to cool slightly before eating!

Notes
If you prefer cakier brownies, use 1 egg white instead of 1 yolk!
So good and easy!! Love a simple 1-2 brownie recipe. My only issue is that on the Instagram reel, she says 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder, but here it says 4. I went by these instructions, and I think 4 tablespoons was too much. So maybe follow the reel instead? Still very tasty, just very chocolatey 🤪
These are so 🔥. I’ve made them 2x this week already. Didn’t have eggs either time so I used ~1.5-2 Tbs of coconut milk one time and cashew cream the other and they turned out great both times. I think I may have added a little more, maybe closer to 1.5 Tbs…it seems to be a forgiving & flexible recipe. Thank you!!
WOW I love this recipe!! I made these for my husband and I and they were SO good!! Shockingly good! It was so easy and super delicious. 5 stars for sure! You have to try it!!

Can I leave out the cocoa powder to make these blondies?
Hi Jacqueline! I’ve never tried that, but blondie recipes are a little different than brownie recipes so it won’t be quite the same!
If I wanted to make this recipe to fill a muffin tin instead of single service brownie, wondering if you would have the full recipe? Thank you.
Hi Ellen! You can use our best brownies ever recipe to make a full batch!
