Remember those little one bit brownies that you can get at the grocery store? These are similar, if not a lot tastier. Go hog wild and use you imagination, topping them however you see fit! Not only do they look cute, they make a great addition to a Christmas goodie tray.
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup margarine
3 oz semi sweet chocolate
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1/3 cup flour
In a saucepan, melt together the brown sugar, margarine, and chocolate over low heat, stirring until it's melted and smooth. Let cool for 1 minute or so until it's . Whisk in the vanilla and egg. Fold in flour until blended.
Line a mini muffin tin with liners, and spoon your batter into them about 2/3 full.
Bake at 350 F for 7-10 minutes or when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Makes about 1 1/2 dozen
Oooo look! This one is naked!
Toppings:
Ganache:
Melt together 2 oz chocolate, 1/4 cup whipping cream until smooth. Spread over the tops and sprinkle with crushed candy cane.
OR
immediately after removing the brownies from the oven, top with any of the following...
-mini peanut butter cups
-junior mints
-chocolate rosebuds
-hershey's kisses (try the caramel or peanut butter ones)
-mini m&ms
Or, you could let cool completely and ice with your favorite frosting. Our favorite combination is butter cream frosting and crushed candy cane, but you really could just use your imagination here. They are very, very tasty.
Now just try not to EAT THEM ALL.
