Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional, for extra gooeyness)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin or a regular muffin tin with vegetable oil or line with paper liners.
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
-
Add Dry Ingredients: Sift the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder into the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined, making sure not to overmix.
-
Fold in Chocolate Chips (Optional): If you’re adding chocolate chips, fold them into the brownie batter.
-
Scoop and Fill: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the brownie batter into each muffin cup. The batter should fill about half to two-thirds of each muffin cup, leaving room for them to rise and form crispy edges.
-
Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownie bites comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter). You want the edges to be crispy and slightly pulled away from the sides of the muffin tin.
-
Cool: Let the brownie bites cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve: Once fully cooled, serve these delicious crispy edge brownie bites and enjoy the perfect balance of crispy, chewy, and fudgy texture in each bite!
Notes
- These brownie bites are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- For added texture, you can sprinkle some sea salt on top of the brownie bites before baking.
- You can customize these by adding nuts (like walnuts or pecans) or other mix-ins to the batter.
