How to Make Brownie Bites

Can these be bake in mini paper muffin cups?
Hi Leo! Absolutely, using mini muffin liners would make removing them super easy and serving them so convenient. Enjoy!
The cocoa powder at the end I think is unnecessary. I ended up having to bake these for over 20 minutes and they came out very chalky. I’m not sure if it was my mistake or not, but I don’t know if I’ll be using this recipe again!!!
Hi Han! Oh no, I’m sorry to hear they didn’t bake up like they’re supposed to. I’m not sure why they took so long to bake. Are you sure your oven temperature is calibrated correctly? The cocoa powder should help make them extra fudgy, not chalky. Are you sure you stirred it and the flour in well?
Not sure what the problem is but I made this recipe twice today after making several rounds of beautiful sugar cookies this morning. Baked at 15mins because they were still gooey at 13 mins. Cooled completely in the pan and they were over-baked. Tried a second time and took them out at 12 mins. Completely cooled in pan once again and they fell apart under cooked. Need to get off the emotional rollercoaster after today. Not a new baker at all and not sure I’ll try this recipe again. Disappointed and sick of brownies at this point. This is the first review I’ve ever given on any recipe.
Hi Cindy! Oh no, what brand of mini muffin pan are you using? I’m just wondering if it has something to do with the quality of the pan.
Has anyone frozen these to use at a future date?
Hi Carmela! They freeze great! Just let them cool completely and then place them in a freezer-safe airtight container or plastic bag, with parchment paper between each layer. Place them in the freezer for up to 3 months. You could also wrap each bite in plastic wrap before placing in the container or baggie if you plan to enjoy one or a few at a time from the freezer. When ready to enjoy, let defrost at room temperature. I hope this helps. Enjoy!
These are delicious. They baked in 12 minutes as said. They were the favorite treat at our holiday gathering for both young and old! I used gluten free flour and they were perfect.
Hi, Virlenn! I’m so happy to that everyone enjoyed them. Happy Thanksgiving!
Delicious and fudgy! I also baked them for 22 minutes and they were perfect. I’m guessing the longer baking time is due to a silicon baking pan as it looks like you’re using metal.
Hi, Sara! I’m so glad you like them. Yes, it could be the pan, or a difference in altitude or oven temperature. Not all ovens heat the same and so I often recommend an oven thermometer to make sure it’s heating to the right temp.
My granddaughters snd I made these brownies and they’re excellent. The only issue we had was the bake time took a lot longer than what was posted in the recipe. It took a total of 22 minutes.
Hi Ellen! So happy to hear you baked and enjoyed them. Did you bake them in a mini muffin pan? Are you sure your oven temperature is reading correctly? We bake these often and if they bake longer than 12 minutes, they would burn on top and not be as fudgy as they should be.
