These are absolutely delicious!!!!! I don't own a tartlet pan so I used my mini muffin pan, kept the temperature at 375 and baked for 11 minutes. The brownie bites came out perfect. Now, to find a place to hide them so I can take them to work in the morning. Thanks for posting this recipe.

I also used mini muffin tins and 11 min was how long I cooded too. I used less sugar (1 1/4 C) and whole wheat flour and they still tasted good. Very easy to make as I microwaved the chocolate squares.

Everybody loved these. First time we cut the sugar to 1 1/2 cups and baked in mini muffin pan (using mini muffin papers) at 325 for 11 minutes. It seemed they were partially cooked on the stove so it did not need that much oven time. We removed from the oven and as waiting around 15 minutes for the trays to cool a bit before popping them out. The second time, we cut the butter to 2/3 of a cup and kept the sugar at 1 1/2 cup, also still cooked at 325. Main thing we found was to have all ingrediants on hand before starting and the second the butter and choc are melted put in the sugar and eggs and once they are stired in completely put in the flour and choc chips. I used a Kitchenaid ceramic clad iron casserole pot for cooking as it was nice even heat switching between medium low and low heat. We sprinkled a light bit of powdered sugar on top just to give them a pretty finished look.

This recipe made 42 mini muffin size brownies. They are very, very good. However, I added about 1/4 t. salt and 1/2 t. pure vanilla extract so I'm not sure if the recipe without those 2, what I consider essential brownie ingredients, would be as good. Seems like the other reviewers liked the recipe as written so I guess they are good without those 2 ingredients. I looked up other mini muffin brownie recipes and their bake temperature was closer to 325 degrees or 350 degrees. Bake time at those temperatures was about 11 minutes.
