So you know I love chocolate right? I do. It is one of my most favorite things in the world. Don’t be silly, my family comes first, but chocolate is a really close second. Because I love chocolate so much it can cause some problems with my weight loss goals. Cue in Freezer Friendly Brownie Bites…
These brownie bites are so awesome! They are made with real ingredients and can be frozen for those moments when I am hungry and want to make a whole pan of brownies. I always have hopes that when I make a pan of brownies I will only eat one, but that NEVER happens. I mean… it would be a shame to let all that chocolaty goodness go to waste. Tell me I’m not the only one who has had brownie cereal the next day? Well, these brownie bites fix that problem. I make them ahead of time and then freeze them in a freezer safe ziplock bag.
When I am having a chocolate craving I just take one or ten out and reheat. They are so moist and chocolaty!
It is another great recipe to add to my growing list of freezer meals. This one fits into the dessert or snack category. I make the simple brownie batter and using this tool I add the batter to a mini cupcake pan. Bake them in a 350 degree oven and in ten minutes I have the perfect little bite sized snack. I just know you are going to LOVE these!
I hope you enjoy these freezer friendly brownie bites. Below is the printable recipe:

This will be perfect for taking to new Momma’s in my Moms groups. Thank you so much!
Been freezing brownies for some time but didn’t think to use cupcake pans. Thanks!
Does any manufacturer still make toilet paper in the original width? Thoroughly dislike the new “improved” narrow rolls. Haven’t been able to find any so far.
These would be great to take on the road with you, all you need to do is make sure you get the ice cream and everything is covered 🙂
Love, Love, Love these brownie bites! I just make them in an 8×8 pan and cut to size and freeze. Heat in the microwave for 20 seconds, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and Enjoy! Soooo Gooooood!
I did alter the recipe slightly though. After the first batch, I thought that the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips made it taste a little like dark chocolate, so I did 1/2 Cup Semi Sweet and 1/2 Cup of Milk Chocolate Chips… Mmmmm! Definitely something to calm that Sweet Tooth! 🙂
I love all of your recipe’s and you are my first stop when looking for a great one. Was wondering if you happened to have a good one for Chocolate Chip Muffins? Yes, my chocolate addiction even requires it at breakfast… lol. Thanks!
Made these twice now. The first batch got devoured by family fast, had to make a second batch just to freeze some. I made them with 1/2 cup semi-sweet and 1/2 milk chocolate chips like Angela suggested turned out amazing.
These sound DELISH!
Looks delicious!!
These look so good and the perfect mini chocolate fix!
Looks, yummy! THANKS
Looks yummy!
Yum! Karrie, I love your recipes and tips!
Looks so delicious!
I love brownie bites – great idea!
definitely need to make these to prepare for having my baby!
Yummiest
looks delish!
Ooohh, these look great.
Can they just be thawed rather than reheated? I plan to make a few batches for a big party.
I really have to ask. According to your nutritional chart each mini brownie has 800 calories each! And 535 mg of salt. Each??? That doesn’t make any sense. There is only ½ teas of slant in the whole recipe.
Oh man, you are right, my recipe nutrition maker is messed up, off to fix those numbers, thanks!
fixed it, 70 calories each. Better, right? Ha!
Your brownie bites recipes look very delicious! I love your recipe!
I’ve made them twice and love them! Any idea why they fall after I take them out of the oven? Thank you.
I’ve made these many times, absolutely delicious. My freezer stash was gone, and I was really craving brownies tonight but only had 1/4 C butter. So.. I substituted the rest with 1/4 peanut butter. It worked, and they’re amazing. They had to bake a few minutes longer though. I thought this might be vital information for all you chocolate-peanut butter fans.
You mentioned a tool for filling the muffin cups, but I couldn’t get it.
