Ingredients

Brownie Bites Ingredients

  • Cooking spray, for greasing the pan
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350˚F (175˚C) and lightly coat a 24-cup mini muffin pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and chocolate chips. Microwave for about 1 minute until melted, or alternatively melt them in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring frequently until smooth and fully combined.
  3. Mix Sugar, Cocoa, Eggs and Vanilla: Add the granulated sugar and cocoa powder to the melted chocolate mixture and whisk until well incorporated. Then whisk in the eggs one at a time until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Sift or add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet mixture. Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the batter together until no flour streaks remain, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Scoop Batter and Bake: Using a medium spring-loaded cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion about 1.5 tablespoons of batter into each mini muffin cup evenly. Bake for 12 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers look firm but slightly soft. Avoid overbaking to keep the brownies moist and fudgy.
  6. Cool Completely: Remove the pan from the oven and transfer it to a wire rack. Let the brownie bites cool completely in the pan, about 30-45 minutes, before gently removing them to serve.

Notes

  • For an extra fudgy texture, do not overbake; the brownie bites will continue to set as they cool.
  • You can substitute dark chocolate chips for semi-sweet for a richer flavor.
  • Make sure to cool them fully to allow trimming or easier removal from the pan.
  • Use a spring-loaded cookie scoop for even batter distribution and consistent size.
  • Storage: Store brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
