Here&#8217;s a look at what you&#8217;ll need to make this small batch dessert:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unsalted butter:&nbsp;<\/strong>Needs to be melted, then set aside to cool slightly before adding the eggs (you don&#8217;t want to scramble them!).&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Granulated sugar:&nbsp;<\/strong>Just 3\/4 cup of sugar is used to sweeten the small batch of brownies.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Egg + egg yolk:&nbsp;<\/strong>Help bind together the batter while keeping the brownies moist and fudgy.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:&nbsp;<\/strong>I recommend using pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cocoa Powder:&nbsp;<\/strong>You can use either <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/natural-vs-dutch-process-cocoa-powder\/\">Dutch process or natural unsweetened cocoa powder<\/a>. I&#8217;ve tested this recipe with both and couldn&#8217;t tell a difference.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour:&nbsp;<\/strong>Since this is a smaller batch, you&#8217;ll need just 1\/3 cup of flour. Spoon and level the flour rather than scooping it straight from the bag. This prevents you from measuring out too much by mistake.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Instant espresso powder:&nbsp;<\/strong>This is an optional ingredient, but I highly recommend using it. The espresso powder enhances the chocolate flavor and doesn&#8217;t make the brownies taste like coffee whatsoever.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt:&nbsp;<\/strong>A little salt balances out the sweetness from the sugar.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 500px;

You&#8217;ll know they&#8217;re done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, but with a few moist crumbs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Be careful not to overbake the brownies, as that would result in dry, crumbly brownies rather than moist, fudgy ones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Is a Loaf Pan Necessary?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>I recommend using a 9&#215;5 loaf pan for this recipe, however, you could probably use a muffin pan or ramekins instead. You will need to adjust the baking time slightly depending on the pan you use too.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-25350 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A close up view of a fudgy cocoa powder brownie with a bite missing, stacked atop additional brownies. \" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=400%2C600&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Can Mix-Ins Be Added?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>Yes!&nbsp;If you want to add mix-ins to these brownies, you can add 1\/3 to 1\/2 cup. Some great options are chopped walnuts, semi-sweet chocolate chips, or mini M&amp;M&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<h2>Can This Recipe Be Doubled?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to make a larger pan of brownies, I recommend making my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/homemade-fudgy-brownies\/\">classic brownie recipe<\/a>. It&#8217;s made in a 9&#215;13-inch baking dish and I&#8217;ve tested that recipe multiple times. You can also cut that recipe in half and bake it in an 8-inch square pan for about the same amount of time.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-25348 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A close up view of two fudgy brownies on a white dessert plate, leaning against each other. \" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=400%2C600&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Small-Batch-Brownies-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"baking-tips\">\n<h2>Baking Tips&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure the eggs are at room temperature before beginning this recipe. If you forgot to set the eggs out ahead of time, simply place them in a bowl of warm tap water for 5 to 10 minutes to bring them to room temperature.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>The instant espresso powder is optional but highly recommended. It enhances the chocolate flavor of the brownies and makes them taste incredibly rich.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Be careful not to overbake the brownies.
