Fudge Brownie for One 

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease two standard size muffin cups with cooking spray or line with cupcake liners. Set aside.

2. 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

3. Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture lightens in color slightly.

4. 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 these to the bowl and fold to distribute.

5. Divide the mixture between your two prepared muffin cups and bake for roughly 16-18 minutes. You will know they are done when the edge is set, but a knife inserted into the middle still comes out with a bit of brownie batter on it.

6. Allow to cool slightly before eating!

This week, the children in Cookery Club made brownies. We looked at all of our ingredients and the importance of measurements. The children really enjoyed putting in and mixing all of the ingredients and watching their mixtures bake, however a number of the brownies were not successfully cooked all the way through and so we will be looking at what could have been done differently. 

What you need for 12th December: 

• small container with a lid
