How to make this recipe?

This one-bowl brownie recipe comes together in under 5 minutes with just a whisk and a bowl. Not even a mixer is required!

Steps of making small batch Brownies:

  • Mixing of dry and wet ingredients in one bowl
  • Baking of brownie batter

Ingredients you will need to make this one bowl brownies:

You don’t need many ingredients to make a small batch of brownies; The best kind of recipe excludes premium products, expensive kitchen mixers, and unusual preparation methods. Here is your shopping list.

  • Granulated sugar – I like to use simple granulated sugar for this recipe because it is easily accessible. Feel free to use an equal amount of powdered sugar if you prefer.
  • Egg – Only one whole egg is all you need to make this recipe! Make sure it is at room temperature for the best results.
  • Oil _ You can make this recipe with butter if you prefer, but oil is cheap and a pantry staple available in every household.
  • Coffee _ For a more deep and richer chocolaty flavour, coffee dissolved in 1 tsp water is added.
  • Vanilla essence _ It is best to execute this step because vanilla essence helps to mask any unpleasant egg odour.
  • Flour_ Only a 1/4 cup of flour is used here, and you need to lightly finger level the measuring cup.
  • Dark Coco powder _ Dark cocoa powder is the key to the ultimate deep chocolate flavour brownies. As a significantly less amount of cocoa powder is used in this brownie recipe, it’s essential to use high-quality cocoa powder! In this particular instance, spending a little extra money is justified. My favorite brand is AL ALali!
  • Salt _ a sprinkle of salt gives it an amazing salty-sweet balance.

How to store Brownies?

Even though I bake frequently and don’t always prefer to freeze things, I commonly bake in small batches. I like freshly made baked goods. This recipe is designed so that there are no leftovers.

If you have any leftover brownies, keep them tightly covered at room temperature for maximum freshness. Refrigerate them for up to 4 days to achieve a fudgier texture. The brownies can also be tightly packed and frozen for up to 3 months.

  • Don’t forget to tap your brownie batter before putting it in the oven.
  • Don’t overbeat and over-mix your batter.
  • Also, don’t overbake your brownies. When you insert a knife into the middle, you’ll want it to come out a little gooey, as the brownies will continue to bake as they cool.
  • Follow the order of ingredient mixing. Beating eggs with sugar helps to dissolve sugar which keeps it in syrup form so that it holds on to the moisture and retains it.
