Brownie Cupcakes Recipe image

These brownie cupcakes are fudgy and rich, just like brownies. They are topped with the silkiest dark chocolate buttercream that literally melts in your mouth. You only need a few ingredients and little prep time to make a batch of these. Be prepared for them to disappear quickly as they are a huge crowd pleaser.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 cups granulated white sugar
4 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup dutch-processed cocoa powder, spooned and leveled
1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
1 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups powdered sugar sifted
6 oz semi-sweet chocolate bars, melted and cooled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line two 12 cup muffin pans with 12-14 cupcake liners and set aside.
  • Cupcakes: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until well combined. Sift in the flour, cocoa and salt and stir just until combined. Using an ice cream scoop, spoon the batter into the prepared liners. Fill them about 3/4 to almost full.
  • Bake for 22-26 minutes until the tops look crinkly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out slightly dirty. Do not overbake them or they will become cakey. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Then remove from the pan and transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely before frosting.
  • Frosting: In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, beat butter on medium-high speed until soft and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Sift in the powdered sugar and mix until fully combined and smooth. Add the chocolate and mix until well combined and creamy. Pipe or spread onto the cooled cupcakes and serve. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

2/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
6 ounces bittersweet (61 percent cacao) chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 cup sugar
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
8 ounces white chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon white gel-paste food color
2 drops purple gel-paste food color
2 drops violet gel-paste food color
Sugared edible flowers, such as pansies, for decorating

Steps:

  • Cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard muffin tin with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, and salt.
  • Melt butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of simmering water, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Remove from heat and add sugar, stirring to combine with a rubber spatula. Add eggs and vanilla; stir until emulsified. Add flour mixture and stir until just combined.
  • Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Bake until cupcakes are just set, 22 to 24 minutes. Transfer tin to a wire rack and let cool completely. Carefully remove cupcakes from tin without loosening cakes from liners.
  • Glaze: Place white chocolate in a small heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to a boil in a small saucepan, then pour over chocolate. Let stand 3 minutes until chocolate has softened, then stir with a rubber spatula until emulsified. Stir in white food color, then stir in purple and violet food colors, one drop at a time, until desired color is reached.
  • Pour glaze over cooled cupcakes, filling just to tops of liners. Poke any air bubbles with a toothpick or small skewer. Let stand at room temperature until glaze has set, about 15 minutes. Decorate with sugared pansies. Let stand at room temperature until glaze has set completely, about 1 hour. Cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

When it comes to making these super easy brownie cupcakes the trick is all in how you bake them. Start by preparing a box of Betty Crocker™ Fudge Brownie Mix according to the instructions. Then, instead of baking them in a single pan, divide the batter into a muffin tin to create 18 perfectly portioned cupcake-style brownies. All that's left to do is to frost and decorate them anyway you like. Serve them after dinner, at birthdays, parties and potlucks. They're the perfect - and cutest - way to serve brownies no matter what the occasion.
