A chronicle of my journey of scouring cookbooks, recipe websites, and tried and true meal ideas with a bit of tweaking to pass the Perry family's persnickety palate.

sHorT & sWeeT
Ever have one of those days where you REALLY want something sweet, but you REALLLY don't want to ruin your "diet", healthy eating lifestyle, your run of making good choices, etc, etc? Well fret no more my health conscious friends....how about a recipe for a small batch of brownies? How small are they you ask ? They are SO small that they bake in a 9 x 5 loaf pan and easily cut into 4-5 portions. The End. Sweet tooth satisfied, temptations conquered.
SMALL BATCH BROWNIES
2 TB butter
1/2 oz semi-sweet chocolate
1 egg
1/4 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup baking cocoa
In a microwave, melt butter and chocolate; stir into smooth and cool slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk egg and vanilla; gradually whisk in sugar. Stir in chocolate mixture. Combine the flour, cocoa, and salt; gradually add to the chocolate mixture.
Transfer to a greased 9 x 5 loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 12-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
