How to make Mocha Espresso Brownie Bites
- Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin or line it with mini paper liners.
- Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and brewed espresso until fully incorporated.
- Step 4
Sift in the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Step 5
Fold in the chocolate chips and, if using, the chopped walnuts or pecans.
- Step 6
Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
- Step 7
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Step 8
Allow the brownie bites to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

FAQS
What is the best way to store mocha espresso brownie bites?
To keep your mocha espresso brownie bites fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months. Just make sure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before freezing.
Can I make mocha espresso brownie bites gluten-free?
Yes, you can easily make these brownie bites gluten-free by substituting the all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. This will maintain the texture and flavor while accommodating those with gluten sensitivities.
What can I use instead of espresso in brownie bites?
If you don't have espresso on hand, you can substitute it with strong brewed coffee. Alternatively, you can use instant coffee granules dissolved in hot water for a similar flavor. Just ensure that the coffee is strong enough to infuse the brownie bites with that rich mocha taste.
What are some good pairings for mocha espresso brownie bites?
Mocha espresso brownie bites pair wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. For a beverage pairing, consider serving them with a rich cup of coffee or a glass of milk to complement the chocolate and espresso flavors.
How can I ensure my brownie bites are perfectly baked?
To ensure your mocha espresso brownie bites are perfectly baked, keep an eye on them during the last few minutes of baking. Insert a toothpick into the center; they are done when it comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking, as this can lead to dry brownie bites.
