Recipe for Brownie Bites: Ingredients & Equipment
For the No-Bake Brownie Bites recipe, you’ll need …
Ingredients
- brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, and flour – these ingredients will form your dough.
- vanilla extract – a touch of vanilla extract in any baked good helps bring out all the flavors involved!
- cocoa powder, mini chocolate chips – well, you can’t have brownies without these, can you?! You’ll mix this into the dough for delectable chocolatey goodness!
- German sweet chocolate – chopped into pieces. You’ll melt this chocolate to dip your bites into!
Equipment

- baking sheet with parchment paper – you’ll keep your brownie bites here to chill them.
- double broiler or microwave – to melt your chocolate.

How to make No-Bake Brownie Bites
First, make your brownie dough. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and butter until it’s all combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix until the dough is smooth, then add the all-purpose flour and cocoa powder, mixing again until it forms a soft ball. Finally, fold in the mini chocolate chips.
Second, chill the dough. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Put the brownie balls in the fridge for about 20 minutes to chill.
Third, melt your chocolate. Use a double broiler or a microwave-safe container to melt the German chocolate. (If you’re using a microwave, heat it in 20-second bursts, stopping to stir after each interval until the chocolate is smooth.)
Fourth, coat the brownies in chocolate. Dip each brownie bite in the melted chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off, before transferring them back to the baking sheet. Repeat with all of the brownie bites until they’re all coated.
