Servings: persons

FOR THE BROWNIES:
4 whole 1-ounce Squares Unsweetened Chocolate
2 sticks Butter, Softened (but Not Room Temperature)
2 cups Sugar
4 whole Large Eggs
3 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1-1/4 cup All-purpose Flour
1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
1 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chunks
FOR THE GLAZE:
8 whole 1-ounce Squares Semi-sweet Chocolate, Chopped
1 cup Cream, Heated
2 Tablespoons Light Corn Syrup
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

1
Preheat oven to 325 F.
2
For brownies:
3
Melt 4 ounces chocolate in a saucepan over low heat. Once it's melted, set it aside for 15 to 30 minutes, allowing it to cool. Chocolate should not be warm!
4
Using your stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the eggs two at a time.
5
With mixer on low, drizzle in the cooled chocolate. Mix until just combined. Next, add in vanilla extract and mix until combined. Add flour and mix until just combined. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl and mix for five more seconds.
6
Add chocolate chips and chocolate chunks and mix for just a few seconds on low, until they're incorporated.
7
Generously grease and flour mini-muffin pan. Scoop generous teaspoons of batter into each tin. (We don't want the brownies to have muffin tops; try to get them to stay under the top of the tin.)
8
Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, or until set. Remove pans and invert on a cooling rack. Allow brownie bites to cool completely.
9
To make the icing, mix cream with corn syrup and heat in a microwave safe container. Add chopped chocolate to a separate bowl. Add vanilla to warm cream mixture, then pour over chopped chocolate. Stir until chocolate totally melts and mixture is smooth.
10
Add brownie bites face down in the icing. Dunk to submerge, and spoon icing over the top to thoroughly coat. Remove with a fork, tapping the fork on the side of the bowl several times quickly in order to get the excess to drain between the tines. Carefully set on a baking mat or sheet of waxed paper.
11
Decorate as you wish! Chopped nuts, candies, sprinkles, sea salt...the world is your oyster!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
