The Ultimate Chocolate Brownie Muffins

Very chocolatey. However, mine came out REALLY dense. I'm not quite sure where I might have gone wrong; my mom said the melted butter should not have been hot, I think it might have been because I added the dry ingredients to the wet instead of the other way around it may have led to overmixing. Either way, they still taste really good; I used walnuts and chopped dark chocolate. And only used 1 cup of sugar. Would make again, though more cautiously, because I want to master making muffins!

Amazing amazing amazing! Sooo good. I used white chocolate chips instead of regular chocolate chips and it was perfect. They were devoured instantly. Thanks kittencal, always know that your recipes will be a hit.

These were quite tasty. They do taste exactly like brownies. Mine came out a little chewy on top and moist at the bottom just like a brownie and very very chocolatey. My husband loved them...in fact he ate 12 out of the 15 that I made. Thanks! I'll be making these again.

You can always count on Kittencal for a recipe being a safe bet. I wasn't sure about adding hot water to baking powder as that would activate the raising agent, but I trusted in Kittencal and these came out delicious and with a wonderful soft fudgy texture which got moister and more fudgy after a couple of days in my cake tin. I used only one cup of sugar and subbed half the cocoa for decaf coffee granules (as I'd already started mixing before discovering I didn't have enough cocoa). If you're making these aim for slightly underdone - I guessed the peeps who were unhappy with the texture had overcooked them so I cut the cooking time (knowing my oven runs hot). Will definitely be making these again! :-))

These are yummy. I used half margarine and half applesauce in place of the 3/4 margarine.

Fantastic. Very 'chocolate-y'. A recipe that lives up to its name. I also baked this at 325 degrees for 18 minutes. Will be making this again for my son's class party next week. Thanks for posting.

These little "brownie bites" (as my kids dubbed them) are really tasty. I used Earth Balance, only one cup of sugar, and the flax egg substitute recipe from this site instead of eggs. Like other reviewers, I baked 24 mini-muffins at 325 degrees for 18 minutes. I made some plain and some with a mini peanutbutter cup sunk in the middle. Even without the mini chocolate chips, they were nice and fudgy. I will definitely make these again!

Super fudgy and chocolatey -- these really tasted exactly like brownies! They were too decadent to eat as a breakfast muffin, but excellent for an indulgent snack.

Followed the recipe to a T. They are so delicious. I had a yield of 16. I added the chocolate chips and walnuts, as well placed a single walnut on the top of the muffins. For the last four I added a little water to the mixture as I found it rather thick I found I liked how they baked better, the top of the muffins came out smooth and perfect. Thanks for the recipe! Will be making again.

Kitten!!!! As usual you have provided a yummy yummy treat! I love your alfredo sauces too..
The changes I made:
*fresh ground flour (white wheat, kamut and rye and I mixed in some sweet rice flour)
*some chocolate that I had made last week for some strawberries.. it didn't work so I stuck it in the fridge for later use. I broke this up and used it in these.
*NO NUTS
*I did not use a wooden spoon, I used a whisk. I made 12, but could have made 18 that weren't so full.

What was great? Well I didn't have to cut them! They are ready to be bagged for lunches. GREAT FLAVOR! Rich and yummy!
ONLY PROBLEM: the kids were not at school when I made these and so I had to share.
UPDATE: Doubled these today, and made texas sized muffins. This time they were dryer, but the flavor was spot on. I think I will cut down the baking time next time.

Just okay... maybe a little less than okay. They were super easy to make, and I followed the recipe to a T. Bake time was exact -- perfectly done. I am a chocoholic and was beside myself just waiting to dig in. But it just didn't do it for me. If I didn't have a cup of coffee to help wash my brownie muffin down, I wouldn't have been able to finish it. Although with coffee it tasted great. I might have one or two more to have with some coffee, but I will be taking the rest to work to give away.

These turned out excellent, I used white chocolate chips instead of chocolate...and instead of vanilla I used mint extract and it tasted great.

Just made these little beauties. A very quick & easy recipe and a great result.
I made 12 mini muffins and 6 big ones but would probably go for about 8 minis & 6 decent size big ones next time as the big guys this time are a little small.
They are definitely cousins of the brownie family as they are dense, rich & moist.
I was careful not to over cook them after reading the reviews.
I used chopped chocolate pieces but they're not really needed as these are soo chocolatey already. Might try bit of orange zest & orange essence or peppermint next time for a little variation. Yummo!
Thanks for sharing your recipe ;)

I have made this twice now and it went down both time with rave reviews! The only changes I made was to add espresso powder to the water and to use a touch more water than called for.(per the other reviews).

This was great but mine came out really thick. I need to do something to thin the batter out a little. I will read the reviews. I must have overcooked them. I will try them again. Usually my hubby isn't a muffin fan. He was so upset when he got home from work and they were all gone. My kids ate them up so quick. Thanks so much!!

These are so tasty and very easy, even a beginner cook can master these. I used 1/2 cup white chocolate chips as I had just enough leftover from another recipe and 1/2 cup walnuts and they turned out rich and chocolaty. Thanks for sharing you recipe. Made for Nuffin but Muffin Tag Game at KK's Forum.

I was really disappointed in these muffins. I made them for an extra special birthday treat, but they had such a weird texture and were not that tasty. I'm sure it's operator error, but I definitely won't make these again. Bummer!

OH MY GOSH! these must be the best muffins ive made to date!!! I made 12 to take to a BBQ, 9 made it out the door and the rest were gone before the BBQ was even turned on! A big hit. moist, tasty!! I only had 1/2 cup cocoa but the were still super chocolaty. I didnt have choc chips either only a bar of choc so i chopped that up and had big chunks of choc through them, and had pecans instead of wallnuts! Will make again very soon and this time im not sharing!!!

My daughter had been asking for brownies for a couple of days but I hate having to cut them out so I told her I would make chocolate cupcakes. When doing a search I ran across these ans gave them a try. After baking and cooling my whole family gave them a try and loved them. The recipe is simple and delicious I will definitely be making them again. I am thinking of trying them in a mini muffin tin in the future.
