These delicious bite sized chocolate sourdough brownies have crinkly, crackly tops and gooey centres ... not to mention those chewy edges. Perfect for a bake and take dessert or simply as a little indulgence, these brownie bites are perfection!
2 Mini Muffin Pans (I've used 2 x 24 hole mini muffin pans)
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
150gAll Purpose Flour
380gGranulated Sugar
65gCocoa Powder
3gSalt
3gBaking Soda
100gSemi Sweet Chocolate Chips(I've used semi-sweet chocolate chips)
Wet Ingredients
120gButter(salted, melted)
2Eggs(large eggs are best, if using small eggs add 3)
5gVanilla Extract
120gSourdough Starter(can be active or discard)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 160ºC/320ºF and grease 2 x 24 mini muffin pans with butter or cooking spray. Set aside.
In a bowl, add the all purpose flour, white sugar, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well combined. Place the chocolate chips in the bowl and mix until they are all coated in the flour mixture.
On top of the dry ingredients, add the melted butter, 2 eggs, vanilla extract and sourdough starter. Using a spatula, gently mix all of the wet and dry ingredients together, ensuring that the sourdough starter is well combined. This is a thick brownie mixture - that’s ok, it’s meant to be like this.
Divide the mixture evenly into the 2 x 24 mini muffin pans. I find it easiest (and fairly mess free) to use a disposable piping bag, but a cookie scoop or spoon works too. Fill them around half to 3/4 full.
Place the sourdough chocolate brownie bites into the oven for 15 minutes. The tops should be baked but the inside will still be gooey. They will firm up as they cool, so don't be tempted to bake them for too long past 15 minutes.
Allow the bites to cool in the pan for around 10 minutes before you try to remove them, as they will fall apart. As the brownie bites cool, the tops should become crackly and the edges will be a little chewy too. Brownie perfection!
Top with whipped cream or dust with icing sugar before enjoying! I dare you to stop at eating just one!
