Brownie Muffins
Ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
3. In a separate large bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Mix well until the sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes smooth.
4. Add the eggs to the butter and sugar mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough muffins.
6. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips gently into the batter until evenly distributed.
7. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
8. Bake the Brownie Muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
9. Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the Brownie Muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
