BROWNIE LITTLE BITES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 24-well nonstick mini muffin pan generously with baking spray.
• Melt the unsweetened chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave. Remove from the microwave and stir in 8 mints until all melted. Let cool slightly.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream 1 stick of the butter with the sugar. Beat in the eggs one at a time. With the mixer on low, slowly drizzle in the cooled chocolate mixture, mixing until combined. Add the flour and mix thoroughly. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, add the mint extract and mix again.
• Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, scoop the batter into the prepared mini muffin pan. Bake until the edges are set and a toothpick comes out clean, 11 to 15 minutes. Let rest in the pan 5 minutes and then turn upside down out of the pan and allow to cool.
• Combine 30 to 36 mints in a microwave-safe bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the bittersweet chocolate. Microwave and stir until melted and smooth.
• Dip the brownie bites in the chocolate, concentrating on the top "cone" part. Allow to set for a few minutes. Chop the remaining mints and sprinkle them on the top. Set in the freezer for 10 minutes if you need them to set right away. Yum!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for nonstick pan). Place paper baking cups in 24 miniature muffin cups.
• With sharp knife, cut each brownie dough round in half crosswise to make 2 halves; roll into balls. Place 1 ball into each muffin cup.
• Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out almost clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan; carefully remove to cooling rack.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips uncovered on High 30 to 60 seconds, stirring after 30 seconds, until chips are melted and smooth. Transfer melted chips to small resealable food-storage plastic bag; cut small corner from one end of bag. Drizzle onto brownies, and top with sprinkles; serve. If desired, refrigerate about 15 minutes or until chocolate drizzle is set before serving.
