For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in tough brownies. Store the brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Indulge in the perfect bite-sized treat! These brownies strike the ideal balance between fudgy and cakey, elevated by a delicate sprinkle of sea salt that enhances the rich chocolate flavor. A delightful upgrade to your average brownie bite!
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
In a large bowl, combine the softened butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until the butter is incorporated but small bubbles of butter still appear in the batter. (Mixing time: 5 minutes)
Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Gently mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix the batter to maintain a tender crumb. (Mixing time: 3 minutes)
Using a small ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Lightly sprinkle the tops of the brownies with fleur de sel. (Assembly time: 7 minutes)
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 10-15 minutes. (Baking time: 10-15 minutes)
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and transfer the brownie bites to a wire rack to cool completely. (Cooling time: 20 minutes)
For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in tough brownies. Store the brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
