Ingredients
  

Brownie Bite Batter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour leveled
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Mini Muffin Pan
  • Cooling Rack
  • Freezer
  • Spatula
  • Cookie Scoop
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a mini muffin pan.
  2. Whisk melted butter and sugar together until smooth and glossy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until thickened and fully combined.
  4. Whisk cocoa powder, flour, and salt together in a separate bowl.
  5. Fold dry ingredients gently into the wet mixture until no dry streaks remain.
  6. Stir chocolate chips evenly through the batter for extra fudgy bites.
  7. Scoop batter evenly into the mini muffin pan cups using a cookie scoop.
  8. Bake for 12 minutes until edges look set while centers stay slightly soft.
  9. Cool brownie bites briefly before transferring them carefully to a cooling rack.

Notes

For fudgier brownie bites, remove them while centers still look slightly soft. Bake longer for firmer texture. Freeze cooled brownie bites tightly wrapped for quick desserts later. Chill bites briefly before serving cleaner shapes. Add caramel centers, chopped nuts, or peanut butter chips for flavor changes. Store brownie bites covered for up to five days.
