I love to bake, but I can't stand making a cake and having to eat it all (or throw most of it out) because I'm only one small person lol.
I'd love to find recipes to make small portions of cookies, cakes, muffins etc.

Check out blog websites that focus on cooking! It may require some searching but a lot of people will post recipes portioned for one.
allrecipes.com has a converter on it if you're not comfortable doing conversions yourself. This way you could set it up for one portion.
Usually though I find that ingredients themselves tend to come in packaging to feed multiple people. Some of it you can freeze, or what I usually do is use half of something and then put the rest in the fridge and try to work it into my next dinner/meal
ex: Chicken breast is usually in packages of 4, I cook my chicken breast for dinner and two more and then put the other one back in the freezer. Use the two other chicken breasts to make chicken salad the next day. Or if I used an onion for dinner, there is no need to use a whole onion for 1 person for one meal almost ever (unless you REALLY love onions) so I put the other half in the fridge and put that in my say chicken salad the next day or make a soup that uses onions, etc. I try to spread the use of my ingredients out over the week.
