Mini Brownie Butter Cake
Ingredients
Brownie:
- 5 oz (140g) Dark Chocolate, broken into pieces
- 1/4 cup Butter
- 1/4 cup Brown sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1/4 cup All-purpose flour
Butter cake:
- 1/2 cup Butter
- 1/2 cup Sugar, I reduced by 1 tbsp
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp Baking powder
- 3 1/2 tbsp Fresh milk
Instructions
- Lightly grease a muffin pan and set it aside. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- To make brownies, melt the chocolate and butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the brown sugar until well blended.
- Add the egg and mix well. Fold in the flour and combine until smooth. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of batter into each cavity of the muffin pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool while preparing the butter cake.
- To make the butter cake, beat the butter with the sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Fold in the sifted flour and baking powder, and alternately add the fresh milk, mixing to form a batter.
- Spoon the batter over the brownies, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. Bake in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes or until cooked.
- Let it cool completely, and serve it plain or garnish with fresh fruit or drizzle with chocolate sauce as desired.

I made these yesterday & they turned out fantastic. I used cupcake liners as I was worried about the cakes sticking to the pan. However, I need not have as there’s so much butter they would just fall out of the pan. I guess that’s why there are called butter cakes. Thanks for the recipe.
