Single Serving Brownie in a Cup

Just in time for Friday…

This is a perfect dessert for those of us who love dessert, but love it so much that making an entire pan would be a bad idea. 

Why you ask?

Because in two days, the whole 9x13 pan of brownies will be consumed. 
That’s not so bad if you have a family of 6-7, but for a family of 2, well, that’s trouble. 

Since I still love my desserts – my sister and I decided to try a brownie in a cup. 

We decided it was perfect: just the right amount of work that you won’t make it every day, and just the right amount of rich, gooey chocolate to meet your craving.
