Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (113g) butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup (90g) semisweet chocolate chips
  • About 2 cups (480ml) vanilla ice cream
  • About 1 cup (240ml) chocolate sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1/4 cup (30g) chopped toasted nuts (optional)
  • Whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt.
  3. Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or over low heat on the stove. Let it cool slightly.
  4. Whisk the eggs and vanilla extract into the melted butter until smooth and slightly frothy.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and fold gently with a spatula until just combined.
  6. Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips evenly.
  7. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes. Check at 18 minutes with a toothpick; it should come out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  9. Let the brownie cups cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. To make homemade chocolate sauce: heat 1/2 cup heavy cream until just simmering, pour over 4 oz chopped bittersweet chocolate, stir until smooth, and let cool slightly.
  11. Assemble sundae cups by placing a brownie cup in each serving dish, topping with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, drizzling with chocolate sauce, and sprinkling nuts or whipped cream if desired.
  12. Serve immediately for best texture contrast.

Notes

Use good-quality cocoa powder and chocolate chips for best flavor. Avoid overmixing batter to keep brownies tender. Grease muffin cups well or use paper liners to prevent sticking. Brownies can be baked a day ahead and stored airtight; warm slightly before assembling. For dairy-free version, substitute butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free chocolate chips and ice cream. For gluten-free, use almond flour or gluten-free flour blend.
