How to make brownie cupcakes
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!

- Whisk together the eggs and sugar and whisk in the flour and vanilla.
- Pour the melted chocolate in and fold together.
- Scoop the batter into cup cake liners and bake.


How to store brownie cupcakes
Once you have iced the brownies, store them in an airtight container and they will keep well for 2 days.
I prefer not to store them in the fridge, but if you do, let them come to room temperature before enjoying.
Make ahead
You can make the chocolate buttercream frosting up to a week ahead of time and keep it stored, covered in the fridge. You can also freeze the frosting for two months.
Unfrosted brownies can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for up to 4 days.
Decorating your brownie cupcakes
I decorated these with a square of Hersheys, because quite honestly there isn’t a thing as too much chocolate!
You can leave the Hersheys out of you prefer or try adding some sprinkles to fit in with any occasion.


Tips!
- The brownie batter should be fully combined and smooth in texture with no lumps.
- You can make the cookies without cupcake liners if you prefer, just be sure to grease your muffin tin well.
- Bake the brownie cupcakes in a fully pre heated oven so that they bake through evenly.
- This will make 9 brownie cupcakes and filling them 3/4 of the way full will take the brownie to the top of the wrapper as shown in my picture. If they want to fill the wrappers 1/2 way they could stretch it to fill 12 cupcake wrappers.
