Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a mini muffin pan with softened butter.

In a small bowl, add the chocolate and oil. Place over a small saucepan of simmering water, and stir often until fully melted. Set aside to cool.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add the sugars, eggs, and vanilla. Using an electric mixer, beat on high speed for about 5-6 minutes until the mixture has doubled in size.

While mixing on low speed, slowly pour in the chocolate oil mixture.

Once it is fully combined, add the flour, cocoa powders, espresso powder, and salt, and mix until mostly combined.

Lastly, fold in the chopped chocolate until evenly dispersed.

Add the brownie batter to the prepared mini muffin pan, filling each cup about ¾ full.

Bake the brownie bites for about 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Allow them to cool for a few minutes in the pan before removing. Repeat with the remaining brownie batter.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Bloom Your Espresso Powder 🌫️
Dissolve the espresso powder in a small amount of hot water before adding to your batter to unlock its full aromatic potential and eliminate grittiness for a smoother texture.
Double Cocoa Powder Strategy 🍫
Sift both the Dutch-processed and black cocoa powders together with flour to prevent lumps and ensure even distribution of their distinct flavor compounds throughout the brownies.
Don't Overmix the Batter 🥄
Mix just until combined after adding dry ingredients to avoid developing gluten, which would make the brownies cakey instead of fudgy and dense as desired.
Underbake for Maximum Fudginess 🕐
Pull the brownies from the oven when a toothpick inserted in the center still has moist crumbs clinging to it—they'll continue cooking as they cool, creating that signature fudgy texture.
Chill Before Cutting ❄️
Refrigerate the baked brownies for at least 2 hours before cutting into neat bites; the cold firms the structure and prevents crumbling while preserving the fudgy interior.
