Introduction

The image shows several chocolate brownie squares on a wooden board, each topped with three visible layers. The bottom layer is a thick, dark brown, moist brownie base. The middle layer is a light caramel-colored creamy filling, smooth and slightly thick. The top layer is a glossy dark chocolate coating that covers the caramel, with some pieces showing bits of white nuts embedded in the chocolate. Some brownies are cut to display the layers clearly. The background surface is replaced with a white marbled texture. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

3/4 cup butter or coconut oil, softened
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1 1/3 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup flour
1/2 bag Snickers Bites
1/4 cup mini M&M’s
Frosting for topping (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and thoroughly spray a mini muffin pan to prevent sticking.
Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together the softened butter or coconut oil, cocoa powder, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
Step 3: Gently stir in the flour just until the batter is blended—avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender.
Step 4: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into each mini muffin cup. Press a Snickers Bite into the center of the batter, making sure the top of the candy is level with the dough.
Step 5: Bake the brownie bites for 16 to 18 minutes until set. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely before removing from the pan to keep their shape intact.
Step 6: If desired, top each brownie bite with a dollop of frosting and sprinkle with mini M&M’s for an extra pop of color and flavor.

Tips & Variations

Use coconut oil instead of butter for a dairy-free option with a slight coconut flavor.
Try different candy bites like peanut butter cups or caramel squares for a fun twist.
Frosting is optional but adds a delicious finishing touch—cream cheese or chocolate frosting work especially well.
Press the candy gently into the batter to avoid sinking during baking.

Storage

Store the Snickers Brownie Bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months. Warm slightly before serving to enjoy a soft texture.

How to Serve

The image shows two stacked dessert bars with three visible layers. The bottom layer is a dark, moist chocolate brownie with a slightly rough texture. The middle layer is creamy peanut butter mixed with whole peanuts, light tan in color, and slightly chunky. The top layer is a smooth, thick dark chocolate coating that partially drips down the sides. The background is a white marbled surface, and a blurred hint of dark objects can be seen behind the stack. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make these brownie bites gluten-free?

Yes, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure it is a one-to-one replacement for best results.

Can I use regular-sized Snickers instead of Snickers Bites?

Regular Snickers bars are too large for this recipe. Use Snickers Bites or cut regular Snickers into small pieces before adding to the batter.

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

Add-ins and Toppings

1/2 bag Snickers Bites
1/4 cup mini M&M’s
Frosting for topping, if desired

Instructions

Preheat oven: Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and generously spray a mini muffin pan with non-stick spray to ensure easy removal of the brownie bites after baking.

Fill muffin cups: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the brownie batter into each mini muffin cup, spreading it evenly but leaving room for the Snickers Bite.
Add Snickers Bite: Press one Snickers Bite candy into the center of the batter in each cup, pushing it down so that the dough and top of the candy are level with each other.
Bake: Place the muffin pan in the oven and bake for 16-18 minutes until the brownie bites are set. Avoid overbaking to retain a chewy texture.
Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownie bites to cool completely in the pan before attempting to remove them to maintain their shape and prevent sticking.
Add toppings: Once cooled, optionally top each brownie bite with a small dollop of frosting and sprinkle mini M&M’s on top for added color and sweetness.
