Brownie bites are tiny treats that pack a big chocolate punch. These mini desserts are perfect for parties, snacking, or satisfying your sweet tooth without overindulging. You can whip up a batch of 24 fudgy brownie bites in just 25 minutes, with only 10 minutes of prep time.

You’ll love how easy these are to make. Simply melt butter, mix in cocoa and sugar, add eggs and vanilla, then fold in flour and chocolate chips. Scoop the batter into a mini muffin pan and bake for 12-15 minutes. The result? Irresistible two-bite brownies with crisp edges and gooey centers.
Exact Ingredients List
Here’s what you’ll need to make these delicious brownie bites:
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup (60g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (63g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (85g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Make sure to measure your ingredients carefully for the best results. You can use a kitchen scale for more precise measurements if you have one.
For the butter, you’ll need one stick. Room temperature eggs work best in this recipe. You can use any brand of cocoa powder you like, but Dutch-processed cocoa will give you a deeper chocolate flavor.
Feel free to swap the semi-sweet chocolate chips for milk chocolate or dark chocolate if you prefer. You could even use white chocolate chips for a fun twist!

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan or use mini cupcake liners.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Take it off the heat and mix in sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Let it cool a bit.
Add eggs one at a time, stirring well. Mix in vanilla extract.
Gently fold in flour until just mixed. Stir in chocolate chips.
Scoop batter into muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake for 12-15 minutes. They’re done when the tops are set and a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Let the brownie bites cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then move them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Enjoy your tasty treats!

Tips, Tricks & Storing
For extra fudgy brownie bites, underbake them slightly. Take them out when the edges are set but the center is still a bit gooey.
Mix things up by adding nuts, mint chips, or a swirl of peanut butter to the batter. Get creative with your mix-ins!
Let the brownie bites cool completely before storing. This helps keep them moist and chewy.
Store your treats in an airtight container at room temperature. They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 days.
For longer storage, wrap the brownie bites tightly in plastic wrap and freeze. They’ll keep for up to 3 months in the freezer.
To thaw, leave them on the counter for a few hours. You can also microwave them for a few seconds for a warm, gooey treat.
Want to dress them up? Try drizzling melted chocolate on top or dusting them with powdered sugar before serving.
For easy removal, use silicone mini muffin liners. They’ll pop right out with no sticking.
