Brownie Bites

These are so quick and easy to throw together! But you want to know the best thing about them? They taste so yummy! They are rich, fudgey, and chocolatey. A great "finger food" type of dessert.

I would tell you that these are also great for portion control, but lets face it - if you're anything like me you'll still eat more than you should. Haha!

Adapted from Epicurious.com
Makes about 24 mini bites

10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) butter, melted
1 1/4 cups sugar (or honey sucanat)
1 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cold large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or 2.5 oz. Soft White wheat flour)

Preheat oven to 325ºF. Line mini-muffin tin with mini-cupcake papers, or grease pan with butter.

Stir together sugar, cocoa, and salt. Add melted butter and stir until smooth. Stir in vanilla. Add eggs. Stir until batter is shiny and thick. Add flour, and stir until well blended.

Fill muffin cups with batter (They don't rise very much at all during baking, so you can fill them pretty full). Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist batter crumbs, about 15-20 minutes. (If you have extra batter, you can bake it into regular muffin cups). Enjoy!
