Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Cookie Dough Topping

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup heat-treated all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a mini muffin pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Make Brownie Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the unsweetened cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder just until combined to avoid overmixing. Fold in the mini chocolate chips evenly through the batter.
  4. Fill Muffin Pan: Spoon the brownie batter into the prepared mini muffin pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
  5. Bake Brownie Bites: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes. The brownies should be set around the edges but still slightly soft in the center when done.
  6. Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownie bites to cool completely in the pan, so they firm up properly before adding the topping.
  7. Prepare Cookie Dough: In a bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together until creamy and smooth. Mix in the milk and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  8. Add Flour and Salt: Gradually mix in the heat-treated flour and salt to form a safe-to-eat cookie dough, then gently fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  9. Form Cookie Dough Balls: Roll small balls of the cookie dough using your hands, about the size to top each brownie bite proportionately.
  10. Assemble Bites: Press one cookie dough ball onto the top of each fully cooled brownie bite firmly to adhere.
  11. Serve or Chill: Serve the brownie bites immediately for a soft dough experience, or chill them briefly in the refrigerator if you prefer a firmer cookie dough texture.

Notes

  • Heat-treat the flour by microwaving it for 1 minute, stirring halfway through, to ensure it is safe to consume raw.
  • Store any leftover brownie bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
