How to Cook Brownies in a Cupcake Pan

Brownie cupcakes are great for parties.

Almost everyone loves brownies and cupcakes; combining the two is an unbeatable chocolate delight. Brownie cupcakes are rich, moist, and chocolaty; make a double batch because they'll go quickly. These are ideal for parties and for on-the-go treats. Since they are all the same size, your kids won't be able to argue about who got a bigger piece, the only problem will be telling them that they can't have seconds and thirds. Dress these brownie cupcakes up with frosting or powdered sugar for fancy events.

Things You'll Need

• Brownie mix
• 1/3 cup water
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 2 or 3 eggs
• Bowl
• Mixing spoon
• Cupcake tray
• Cupcake liners
• Non-stick cooking spray
• Oven
• Oven mitts

Instructions

1. Combine brownie mix, oil, eggs, and water in a large bowl and mix until smooth. Choose the "fudge-like" option over "cake-like" for moister brownies.

2. Place cupcake liners in a cupcake tray or spray a cupcake tray with non-stick baking spray.

3. Fill each cup 3/4 of the way. Try to put the same amount of batter in each cup.

4. Bake at the temperature specified in the recipe for 25 to 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of one of the cupcakes comes out clean.

5. Cool for five to 10 minutes, then remove the brownies from the cupcake tray.
