I have recently started cooking for snacks for the youth. Its cheaper for the church and healthier snacks because I can control the ingredients. One nonhealthy but tasty snack I made at the last Chill-In was brownies! Homemade, PERFECTLY sizes wonderful BROWNIES!The key is baking it in a mini muffin pan! They come out bite sized and perfect. And with the mini muffin pan it takes half the bake time.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso combined with 1 tablespoon warm water
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder (for extra rich brownies, try dark cocoa powder)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Dark chocolate chips (I used 60% cacao)
- Baking spray (cooking spray with flour for baking)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray mini muffin tin with baking spray.
Combine butter, sugar, espresso mixture, and eggs in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, and beat to combine.
Fill a mini muffin tin with the brownie batter. Place a few chocolate chips in the center of each brownie bite.
Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and allow brownie bites to cool slightly prior to removing from pan.
Those look good. I'll have to make some soon!
