These moist, gooey, and ideal for small treats brownie bites are rich and decadent. All in one bite, they are the ideal fudgy brownie, and they are incredibly simple to make!
It’s no secret my love of brownies runs deep. Even though I already have a ton of brownie recipes on the blog, including ones for pecan pie and caramel, it doesn’t harm to share one more.
It’s hard to find the perfect brownie. You want chocolate that has a rich, decadent flavor, crispy edges, and fudgy centers. Now imagine all of that in one bite size brownie. This one-bowl brownie bite recipe, which I discovered after experimenting with a number of others, far exceeded my expectations. It doesn’t stick to the pan or the paper liners, isn’t overly sweet, and bakes for just long enough for the centers to stay gooey.
Tips
How to make muffin pan brownie bites
Mix up a quick brownie batter. To ensure that all of the flour is incorporated, stir the batter for 40 solid strokes with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop into muffin tins (I’ve found that a level #20 scoop is the perfect amount, aff. link).
If desired, top with some chocolate chips; either way, they are delicious.
Before removing brownie bites from the tins, let them cool on a cooling rack.
Making these brownie bites into a heart shape is enjoyable and simple.
Use muffin liners in the muffin tins. Then pour the brownie batter into the pans and top each with a marble. They will bake in a heart shape.
You can frost them and top them with pink sprinkles if you want to go all out for the holiday. Or just leave them as they are. Simple but cute.
I tested this recipe to see if it would produce brownie bites in a mini muffin pan.
I used a heaping #60 scoop and divided the batter evenly between 48 mini muffin cups (they were pretty full – almost to the top of the cups).
They baked up in about 16 minutes in my oven. They were so full that the tops of the tins were overflowing with them, but they were adorable and tasted great.
If I were perfecting the recipe, I think I would reduce the amounts slightly to make the mini cups less full or use a few larger muffin cups to catch the leftover batter.
Whether or not you try the mini bites, please let me know in the comments.
Okay, my friends, let me leave you with one final word of wisdom.
Bring them along to the gatherings and serve your visitors They will even love having more brownies in muffin tin. Additionally, when you try your own recipe, you get to choose the toppings. You are entirely free to make them sweet and sugary or to include some mayonnaise.
Ahead of that, you need a muffin pan. Get a 48-cup pan if you want to make mini brownies in a muffin pan. Otherwise, select a pan that is the same size if you prefer to bake the brownies in a paper baking cup. Additionally, without the nonstick spray, the brownies will not easily release from the pan.
So make sure to read the decoration instructions if you want to decorate your brownies. While brownies have only been baked, some toppings must be added. However, some must wait until the brownies are completely cool. Furthermore, allow the brownies to cool on a wire rack for two minutes if you want to serve them as-is. And then serve!.
Making brownies in a muffin tin takes 40 minutes in total. In that, if you are not adding a topping, the preparation could take up to 15 minutes. But with the topping preparation time climbs to 30 minutes. Further, baking only takes 10 to 12 minutes. However, this is using the common ingredients we will talk about here.
