Ingredients
- 1 box of brownie mix (18–20 oz)
- Eggs (as called for on the box)
- Oil (as called for on the box)
- Water (as called for on the box)
- Optional: chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or mini marshmallows for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or spray with non-stick spray.
- Prepare the brownie batter according to the package instructions.
- Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter.
- If desired, sprinkle chocolate chips, nuts, or other toppings on each cupcake.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense cupcakes.
- Fudge-style brownie mix creates a richer, chewier result.
- Mini brownie cupcakes can be made by adjusting the baking time to 12–15 minutes.
- Add toppings before baking for extra flavor and texture.
- Brownie cupcakes can be made ahead and stored or frozen for convenience.
