If you’re craving something rich, chocolatey, and perfectly portioned, these Mini Brownie Bites are about to become your new favorite treat!

Best of all? They’re made in one bowl and ready in under 30 minutes!
Ingredients
-
½ cup butter, melted
-
1 cup granulated sugar
-
2 large eggs (room temperature)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-
½ cup all-purpose flour
-
¼ tsp baking powder
-
¼ tsp salt
-
½ cup chocolate chips (optional but highly recommended!)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin or line with mini paper liners.
-
In a bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until smooth and glossy.
-
Add eggs and vanilla extract; whisk until pale and well combined.
-
Sift in cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold until just combined—don’t overmix!
-
Stir in chocolate chips, if using.
-
Scoop batter into mini muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
-
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until tops are set and a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
-
Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
-
For extra fudgy bites, use dark cocoa powder.
-
Don’t overbake—slightly underdone centers turn gooey as they cool.
-
Line your pan for easy removal and zero cleanup.
-
Add a surprise center—like a dollop of peanut butter or caramel—before baking for fun variations!
