I heard great things about the Delish Recipe for Lemony Lemon Brownies. I wanted to make them but I don’t need so much dessert in the house or eat such a big piece so I converted the recipe into bites by cutting the recipe in half and using a mini cupcake pan.. The only alternation to the recipe (besides cutting the whole recipe in half) was that I added a 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder so my bites would have a little bit of fluff to them since they are so tiny. I have to say that this really is a FORKING DELICIOUS Lemony Lemon Bites recipe. I thought 350 might be too high for the tiny bites so I reduced the oven temperature slightly to 325 F and the bites were done in ten minutes. This recipe make 10 tiny mini Lemony Lemon Bites.
Ingredients for ten (tiny) servings
1/4 cup unsalted butter – room temperature
1/4 cup + 1/8 cup sugar
1 egg
1 Tablespoon – fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 Tablespoon – fresh lemon zest
1/4 cup + 1/8 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
pinch sea salt
2 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice (tart lemon glaze)
1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest (tart lemon glaze)
1/2 cup 10x sugar (tart lemon glaze)
non stick neutral spray
Directions
Set oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a mini cupcake pan with non stick spray and set to the side.
In a medium bowl mix the butter with the sugar till smooth and then mix in the egg till smooth. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, flour salt and baking powder and mix till smooth. Use an extra small scooper or a teaspoon and fill mini cupcakes about three quarters full. This should make about ten mini cupcakes. These cupcakes cook up very fast. If you overtake them they could come out dry. I put mine on the middle rack of the oven. Mine were very moist and done in only ten minutes.
Make the Tart Lemon Glaze.
In a medium bowl mix together the lemon juice, remaining lemon zest and powdered sugar. You can either pour it over the cupcakes (when they are cool) or spoon the glaze over them.
