Everyone loves a luscious, chocolatey dessert, especially when it comes in bite-size form. Next time you’re craving a fudgy morsel to satisfy your sweet tooth, try this brownie cake bites recipe. These are a fun, tasty alternative to your traditional chocolate cupcake, and they’re easy to make.
With the melted dark chocolate mixed right into the batter, these cake bites are everything you expect a brownie to be, in a mini snackable form!
The low flour content keeps these brownie cake pops nice and fudgy and the dark chocolate elevates the richness.
If you don’t have all of the equipment required in this recipe, don’t worry! A mixing spoon works just as well as a whisk. A microwave can be used in place of a double boiler. If you don’t have a piping bag, a plastic zip top bag with the corner cut off works just as well.
Technically, if you don’t have a cake pop baker, this brownie bites recipe can even be baked in a sheet pan and cut into different shapes.
Just be sure to test for doneness by poking the center with a toothpick or knife. If it comes out clean, the brownies are done. Store these bites in an airtight container to preserve freshness, and enjoy!
These treats are the perfect dessert to bring to a party, serve to your family as an after dinner delight, a Valentine’s Day snack for kids or just to treat yourself!

Cake Pop Maker Brownie Bites
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 ¼ cups sugar
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 6 oz. dark chocolate bar - broken into pieces
- 5 oz. butter
- 3 eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine all dry ingredients (flour, sugar and baking powder).
- Melt the chocolate and butter together using a double boiler, or place a metal bowl over a pot of simmering water and add the chocolate/butter to the bowl to melt it, stirring occasionally.
- Add the melted chocolate/butter mixture to the dry ingredients and mix together with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
- Lightly oil the cake pop maker cooking plates. Plug it in to preheat. Pour brownie batter into a piping bag.
- With the piping bag, pour batter into cake pop maker holes, to just below the top of the hole. (Alternatively, you can use a teaspoon to transfer the batter.)
- Close the lid and bake for about 8 minutes, or until baked through. I like to use a narrow spatula with a heat glove on to remove them.
- They will be hot inside, so let them cool and enjoy!

I’m wondering if the butter amount in this recipe is wrong. Is it supposed to be 5 tbsp butter? because 5 oz is about a stick and a fourth of butter, which is a lot and my brownies came out raw in the middle no matter how long I baked them in the babycakes maker.
Hi Dara, the butter amount is correct. I have tested this recipe many times and I retried it again today to be sure. After 8 minutes in the cake pop maker, these brownie bites will be crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, but certainly not raw. Did you cool them first? They firm up a bit as they cool.
This is such a fun and cute recipe! I’m sure that the little ones in my life are going to love it!
Yes for sure! My kids love these :). Thanks Colleen.
