This Valentine’s Day we’re celebrating close calls with a Mexican Chocolate Brownie Bites that blows away all the bad decisions we’ve ever made. For good.
These spicy little bites are the perfect mix of salty and sweet. Some might say we’ve found “the one,” but we promise you’ll be back for seconds… and thirds. Actually, no judgment if you end up eating the whole batch yourself because they’re THAT GOOD.
Ingredients
For the brownie bites
-
1 box Miss Jones Baking Co Organic Brownie Mix
-
2 eggs
-
3 tablespoons water
-
⅓ cup canola or vegetable oil
-
½ Tbsp. cayenne pepper
-
1 bag TCHO dark chocolate wafers (chocolate chips also ok!)
-
Sea salt and chili pepper flakes to taste
For the ganache
-
12 oz. dark or semisweet chocolate
-
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Directions
For the brownie bites
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, combine brownie bite ingredients and ½ tablespoon cayenne pepper, stirring until combined.
Lightly grease and flour a mini muffin/cupcake pan (use butter and flour - not a spray), then fill each cup 1/3 full. Add a chocolate wafer and cover with mix until ⅔ full. Bake for 8-12 minutes. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before removing from the pan.
For the ganache
In the microwave or a double broiler (pot of boiling water with a bowl on top), melt the dark chocolate and heavy whipping cream until completely smooth, stirring as needed.
Place brownies on a cooling rack with parchment paper underneath, and add one generous drizzle of warm ganache to each bite. Sprinkle with chili and sea salt right before serving otherwise the salt will melt into the chocolate and make for a little-too-salty treat.
Recipe Note
Extra bites are great to keep in the freezer for impromptu mini lava cake needs. Warm ‘em up, add a scoop of ice cream and get ready to fall in love.
