Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 muffin tin
  • 12 muffin liners
  • 1 Spoon
  • 1 microwave-safe bowl
  • 1 Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with muffin liners.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  • Spoon half of the batter into each muffin liner, filling them halfway.
  • Place a few white chocolate chips in the center of each muffin cup.
  • Cover the chocolate chips with the remaining batter, filling each liner almost to the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the brownie cups to cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For best results, ensure the sweet potatoes are well-mashed to avoid lumps in the batter. You can experiment with different types of chocolate for the filling, such as dark or milk chocolate, to vary the flavor. Adjust the sweetness by using less sugar if preferred, and remember that the batter should not be over-mixed to keep the brownies tender.
