Recipe: Brownie Bites

These cute little bite-sized brownies are absolutely perfect for picnics at the park or beach… they pack easily in an air tight container… no worries about something melting or getting ruined with the heat… and they’re the perfect size for little people as well as adults.

If you want to include them in a party tray of little desserts… just dress them up with a little ganache and a cherry… and you have a terrific little addition to your party tray.

TIPS

You can use either my brownie recipe or your own… or even a boxed mix (gasp! I know… shhh … don’t let the blog snob hear you say those dreaded words… boxed mix… I won’t tell if you won’t.

If you do decide to use a boxed mix… I really have had a lot of luck with Betty Crocker Fudge Brownies – Traditional Chewy Brownie Mix… they come out perfect every time… I do prefer making my own from scratch… but I have one of these mixes in the pantry.. just in case.. I need to make something really fast…

Be very careful.. do not over-bake these… I baked mine for exactly 18 minutes… and they were perfect.
