Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a muffin pan with parchment paper liners.
- In a microwave safe bowl microwave the butter and dark chocolate chips for 60 seconds. Stir and heat again for 30 seconds. Stir until melted and set aside. Note: if not completely melted, heat in 15 second bursts, stirring in between, until melted.
- In a stand mixer, or a bowl with hand mixer or a whisk, beat the sugars, eggs, and vanilla together until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in the melted chocolate, mixing until well combined.
- Whisk together the flour, salt, and cocoa powder and then fold into the batter. Mix until well combined but don't over mix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips. The batter will be thick.
- Scoop the batter into muffin cups, filling quite full. You'll get 12-15 brownie bites.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, just until the brownies are dry and glossy on top. For me they took about 17-18 minutes, but I like them fudgy inside.
- Serve topped with whipped cream or whipped topping plus sugared cranberries and sugared sprigs or rosemary.*
Notes
- This method works for the rosemary sprigs, too. These sparkly garnishes put the Christmas in Christmas brownie bites!
- Rinse raw cranberries or rosemary sprigs. Shake off excess water.
- Working in batches, add the berries or herbs in a bowl of white sugar. Use a spoon to toss them around to coat with the sugar.
- Remove to a plate and let them dry before moving.
