This easy gluten free brownie bite recipe makes 18 brownie muffins. They have a soft cake like center and a crispy brownie top. The recipe uses chocolate chips and cocoa powder so these brownie cups are fudgy and delicious!
My favorite part of the brownie is the crispy and crunchy outside edges. Making brownies in a muffin tin means each one has a crispy outer edge with a fudge inside. These gluten free brownie bites are delicious on their own or served with homemade whipped cream or ice cream.

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line muffin tins for 18 brownie bites with cupcake liners or grease with coconut oil.
In a microwave safe bowl heat the chocolate chips and butter until they are melted. Heat in 30 second intervals and stir in between.
In a separate mixing bowl sift together the gluten free flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and sea salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of your stand mixer beat together the eggs, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla until they are well combined and thicken. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Add the melted chocolate mixture and beat just to combine.
Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Pour your batter into your lined or greased muffin tins. This recipe makes 18 brownie bites.
Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are crisp and browned.
The brownies will deflate in the center as they cool. Let them cool completely before storing them to an airtight container.

Frequently Asked Questions
Once your brownies are cool you will want to store them in an air tight container. They will keep for 3-5 days. If they are going to last longer than that I like to freeze part of them for later.
To freeze, place them in a freezer safe container or bag. Freeze in a flat layer so you can get one at a time out if you would like. This makes a quick dessert or treat to have on hand!

Top Tip
These little chocolate desserts are perfect to make ahead before a gathering. I like to set them out on a cookie sheet or leave them in the muffin tins so I can fill the centers with whipped cream and then store them in the refrigerator until it's time to serve them. They can be served with a fork and plate or just like a cupcake still in the wrapper.
