Expert Tips

Kids will love seeing the shapes oozing out of the molten centers! Use colorful stars, confetti or critter shapes inside cupcakes and also sprinkled on top.

These brownies are “fork food.” Place them on the individual plates right side up or upside down before drizzling with chocolate.

These were so good. Everyone in the house enjoyed them! My only problem was that some of them fell apart before making it to the plate. Next time I will cook a few minutes longer . Most likely because I used a different brand of brownie mix. I had milk chocolate chips on hand so I used those instead of the semisweet and served it with Vanilla Ice cream ! Tasted yummy in the morning with my coffee as well :)

These were the best brownies ever and they were very easy to make. I used a different brownie mix and it worked great. Also had only milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. I solved the problem with getting them out of the muffin pan. I did not use the pan. Instead I placed jumbo foil cupcake holders on a cookie sheet. As soon as I got them out of the oven I placed them upside down on a plate and peeled the foil cupcake holder off. They won't fall apart at all. Grandkids loved them!!

Amazing!!! I also used a different brownie mix, and they were perfect! I kept the remaining cupcakes in the refrigerator, and when ready to eat, warmed the cupcake in the microwave for 15 seconds, and the center was melted and warm... just as good warmed as they were the first time! Definitely something to do again! They are a family hit!!! And very very easy to make!!
