Instructions

Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees
Prepare the Baking Pan: Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or if using a silicone mini muffin tray, lightly grease it with coconut oil. This will make it easier to remove the brownie bites once they’re baked.
Melt the Coconut Oil: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the solidified coconut oil until it becomes a liquid (or use microwave). Let it cool slightly while you prepare the other ingredients.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and coconut sugar until well combined. The mixture should be smooth.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In same bowl, mix together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cacao powder, and baking powder. Mix until fully combined.
Fold in the Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Fill the Muffin Tin: Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, fill each cavity of the prepared mini muffin tin about three-quarters full with batter. This allows room for the brownie bites to rise as they bake.
Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a brownie bite comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake, as this can result in dry brownie bites.
Cool and Enjoy: Allow the brownie bites to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Remove from muffin tray and enjoy!
