Ingredients
  

For the Muffin Batter
  • 4 ounces Bittersweet or Semisweet Chocolate Provides intense chocolate flavor and moistness; consider dark chocolate for a richer taste.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness, contributing to the fudgy texture; coconut oil can be a substitute.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Gives structure; gluten-free flour works as an alternative.
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (Dutch-process) Enhances chocolate flavor; natural cocoa is a great alternative.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Essential for balancing sweetness.
  • 2 large Eggs Binds ingredients together and helps the muffins rise.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the muffins and helps achieve that shiny top.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Ultimate Brownie Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease them lightly.
  2. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate with butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals until fully melted and smooth.
  3. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Set this dry mixture aside.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar on high speed until thick and pale, about 4 minutes.
  5. Reduce mixer speed to low and slowly drizzle in the melted chocolate and butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the sifted flour mixture until just combined to avoid overmixing.
  7. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Optionally, sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top.
  8. Bake for 13-15 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
