How to Make Brownie Bites

Anyone can make regular brownies; but brownie bites are special. You can turn just about any brownie recipe into brownie bites by cutting the baking time to just under half of the regular time. Brownie bites are perfect for taking to play groups, for making for bake sales or even for giving as gifts. Read on to learn more.

Things You'll Need

• Brownie recipe & ingredients
• Non-stick spray
• Preheated oven
• Cookie scoop, tablespoon size
• Mini muffin tin

Instructions

1. Select your favorite brownie recipe. Cake type brownies work best for this recipe. Fudge brownies may not cook properly.

2. Prepare your brownie mix according to the recipe directions.

3. Scoop the brownie mix into a lightly greased mini muffin tin with a tablespoon size cookie scoop.

4. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 12 to 15 minutes. If your recipe specifies a different temperature and time, you can cut the cooking time in just under half. Be careful not to overcook the brownie bites as they will become crispy when overcooked. A toothpick entered into the center of one brownie bite should come out clean and not sticky.

5. Allow the brownie bites to cool before removing. Try twisting them out by hand or using a butter knife to help remove them. Removing the brownies too soon may cause them to crumble.

Tips & Warnings

• Try scooping your favorite cookie dough into mini muffin tins to make fun shaped cookies.

• Be sure to have enough mini muffin tins available to use since you will need to let the brownies cool after they finish baking.

• If you only have a small amount of extra mix left after filling a large mini muffin tin you can divide it amongst the brownies you already scooped in order to make slightly larger brownies if you do not have a second tin to use.

• Do not overcook your brownie bites. They will become very dry and crispy.
