Small Batch Brownies

I’ve been at the hunt for the ideal brownie recipe for years. I’m pretty choosy approximately my cakes. I don’t like them to have an overbearing chocolate flavor (call me crazy), I don’t like them to be so gooey they haven't any shape – I truly like a touch chew to my brownies, i love a fair quantity of vanilla to praise the chocolate taste and that i don’t like a brownie to be so rich i'm able to simplest take some bites. Oh and i really like it to have an excellent consistency during, every now and then I quit with dry edges and a great moist center. now not that choosy right? nicely on Sunday I taken into consideration checking out out extra truffles but rather an idea come to me, why not just make a small batch? I idea because I had just made a banana cake the day previous I should keep myself the temptation of having a large a pan complete of muffins sitting around and make simply enough that i can only have one brownie for me and some left to share with the relaxation of my own family.
