Brownie Bites Recipe
These chewy brownie bites deliver the same dense and fudgy indulgence as my original scratch brownies you know and love, made with melted chocolate and donning that perfectly crackly top. Snackable and versatile, they’re the ultimate treat to make you fall in love with brownies from scratch in two bites or less!
Servings: 36 mini brownies
Ingredients
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter cut into 6-8 slices
- 8 ounces (225g) semi-sweet chocolate coarsely chopped
- ¾ cup (150g) firmly packed light brown sugar
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs room temperature preferred1
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup (90g) all-purpose flour be sure to measure properly
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF (177ºC). Spray the wells of a 24 or 12 count mini-cupcake pan liberally with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and chopped chocolate, stirring frequently until completely smooth. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes.½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, 8 ounces (225g) semi-sweet chocolate
- Whisk the sugar into the cooled chocolate mixture until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking after each addition until smooth. Whisk in the vanilla. Add the flour and salt and stir gently until completely combined.¾ cup (150g) firmly packed light brown sugar, ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar, 3 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ¾ cup (90g) all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon salt
- Spoon the batter into the wells of the mini-cupcake pan. I prefer to use this #50 cookie scoop to fill the wells2 with a scant scoop. Bake the brownie bites for 12-13 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan before removing and decorating. Store brownies covered at room temperature up to 1 week or in the freezer up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
Notes
- Room temperature eggs: these incorporate into batter much more easily than cold eggs, although this is not absolutely necessary.
- Scant scoop: over-filling the wells will guarantee a sunken brownie bite. You want the wells to be about ⅔ of the way full at maximum.
