Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Bites
  • 1 cup granulated sugar 200g
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 100g
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted 115g
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 40g
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 65g
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Optional Mix-Ins
  • 1 cup chocolate chips dark, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate, 175g
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts walnuts or pecans, 60g

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Stir until well-combined.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture. Whisk vigorously for about 1 minute, until the mixture is slightly frothy.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder until evenly blended.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; stop once everything is just combined.
  6. If using, gently fold in chocolate chips and nuts at this stage.
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. They’re done when a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs; don’t overbake for that fudgy texture!
  2. Allow the brownie bites to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For the best flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate chips. You can substitute the unsalted butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free version. For a gluten-free option, use almond flour instead.
