Ingredients
Using a box mix is what makes this recipe even quicker!
- Boxed Brownie Mix
- Ingredients for Boxed Mix
- Hersheys Syrup
- Mini Chocolate Chips
- Cooking Spray
See recipe card for quantities.
Instructions
This recipe can not be simpler. Mix the brownie mix as called for on your boxed mix. Add in about 1 Tablespoon Chocolate Syrup and ¼ cup mini morsels.
Spray and mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Then using your smallest cookie scoop (1 Tablespoon) scoop batter into prepared pan.
Bake for about 11 minutes.
Hint: Let them cool slightly then using a butter knife gently work the sides and they will pop right out!
Variations
- Nuts - add chopped walnuts or pecans if you like these in your brownies. ⅓ cup usually is enough.
- M&M- add a few mini M&Ms to the tops of each brownie before baking.
Equipment
Equipment can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. For mini muffin pans I prefer to use a light colored pan. In my video above I am showing a dark pan...but it is not the best choice. Darker pan tend to cook a little quicker and hotter.
This pan is one of my favorites! And this is a great scoop as well.
Storage
These store fantastic in an airtight container! Store at room temperature for about 4-5 days. These can also be frozen for up to 2 months. I like to flash freeze mine on a cookie sheet just until frozen. Then pop in freezer zip top bag to keep all together.
Top Tip
Do not over bake! They should still appear a little fudgy on top.
