- Brownie Bites: 115 g (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, 170 g (1 cup) semisweet chocolate chips, 150 g (3/4 cup) granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 65 g (1/2 cup) all-purpose flour, 1/4 tsp salt
- White Icing: 60 g (1/2 cup) powdered sugar, 1–2 tsp milk, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin or line with paper liners.
- 2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips together in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- 3. Whisk in the sugar, then add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- 4. Add flour and salt, folding gently until just combined—do not overmix.
- 5. Divide batter evenly among mini muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- 6. Bake for 16–18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
- 7. Cool brownies in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- 8. For the icing, mix powdered sugar with 1 teaspoon milk and vanilla extract, adding more milk as needed until a thick but pipeable consistency forms.
- 9. Transfer icing to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a small tip. Pipe two curved lines on each brownie bite, then add small perpendicular lines to resemble baseball laces.
- 10. Let icing set before serving.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
Handle the brownie batter gently when mixing in the flour to keep the bites dense and fudgy. Baking time is crucial: remove the brownies as soon as a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs to prevent dryness. For icing, adjust milk quantity carefully for a piping-friendly texture.
Varianten und Anpassungen
Add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter before baking for extra texture and flavor. For a more authentic baseball look, tint the icing with red food coloring to replicate real laces.
