Chocolate Brownie Muffins Recipe – A Bake Sale Favorite!

I have a grand daughter who will be 7 years old in a few months. She’s involved in various sport groups, girl scouts, church youth groups, etc. I’m often asked to bake up various treats for their bake sales and one goody that I like to make is homemade chocolate brownie muffins.

Basically…it’s a brownie recipe but instead of baking them in a square baking dish…you bake the batter in a muffin tin. This gives you the perfect portions and makes them better for bake sales! You can place each muffin in a little cellophane or sandwich size baggie and your ready to go!

Chocolate Brownie Muffins Recipe

12 Tbsp. Cocoa Powder
2/3 cup vegetable shortening
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Mix chocolate, vegetable shortening, large eggs, granulated sugar and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Add in the all purpose flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in the milk chocolate chips and mix until well blended. Pour the chocolate batter into a muffin tin that is lightly greased or lined with paper baking cups. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes at 350 degrees F or until done. Remove from oven and let cool.
