Description
Delicious and spooky Monster Eye Brownie Bites perfect for Halloween or any fun gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup candy eyeballs
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin or line it with mini muffin liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Spoon the brownie batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, place a candy eyeball on top of each brownie bite.
- Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the brownie bites for a spooky effect.
Notes
- For a fun twist, try adding a few drops of food coloring to the brownie batter for a colorful surprise inside.
- You can also substitute the candy eyeballs with gummy worms or other spooky candies for a different look.
