These brownie bites are a quick, easy, and festive treat featuring fudgy chocolate with bursts of colorful sprinkles inside and on top, perfect for celebrations and everyday indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (95g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup (35g) unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup festive sprinkles (small round nonpareils and tiny stars recommended)
  • Optional: 1/4 cup (45g) chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon espresso powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your mini muffin tin or line with small paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth and slightly glossy, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition to incorporate air and create a velvety texture. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, salt, and espresso powder (if using).
  5. Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Stop as soon as the mixture is combined to avoid overmixing.
  6. Reserve about 2 tablespoons of sprinkles for topping. Fold the remaining sprinkles and optional chocolate chips carefully into the batter.
  7. Spoon batter into the mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the reserved sprinkles on top of each to mimic a firework explosion.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, starting to check at 12 minutes with a toothpick. It should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  9. Let the brownie bites cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Reserve sprinkles for topping to enhance presentation and taste. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep brownies fudgy. Use quality cocoa powder for best flavor. If batter is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk to loosen. Start checking for doneness at 12 minutes to avoid drying out. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free chocolate powder. Gluten-free flour can replace all-purpose flour for gluten-sensitive diets.
