BROWNIE CUPCAKES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray a cupcake tin with nonstick spray or line 9 of the wells with paper liners. Set aside.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate chips over medium-low heat. Once melted, set aside and allow to completely cool.

Pour the cooled chocolate mixture into the batter and fold it together with a spatula until the batter is combined and free of lumps.
