Ingredients
Method
Making the Brownie Bites
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin.
- In a mixing bowl, melt the butter and mix in the cocoa powder until combined.
- Stir in the sugar until well mixed, then add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Gradually fold in the flour and salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin and fill each cup about 2/3 full.
Baking
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs.
- Let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Making the Chocolate Drizzle
- In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it begins to simmer, then remove from heat.
- Add the chocolate chips and optional butter, stirring until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Notes
For the fudgiest texture, avoid overbaking the brownie bites. Allow the chocolate drizzle to set before serving for a beautiful presentation. Store leftover brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain moisture. Consider trying these with your favorite nuts or candies mixed into the batter for added texture.
