Scrumptious Brookie Snacking Cups

scrumptious brookie snack cups

if you’re craving a treat that’s both indulgent and a little bit wholesome, these scrumptious brookie snack cups are about to become your new favorite.

imagine the best of both worlds—a chewy, chocolatey brownie layer paired with a soft, buttery-like cookie base, all in one delicious cup.

these little bites are not only rich and satisfying, but they also pack a bit of protein, making them a treat you can feel good about enjoying.

taste & texture

the brookie snack cups are the perfect combination of two classic treats.

the cookie base is soft and slightly sweet, with a hint of vanilla and the richness of peanut butter.

the brownie filling is decadently fudgy with deep chocolate flavor, thanks to the cocoa powder.

together, these layers create a snack that’s both chewy and rich, with a slight crunch from the chocolate chips scattered throughout.

each bite is a delicious mix of textures that will have you reaching for another.

how to make these

making these brookie snack cups is easy and doesn’t require any baking.

start with the cookie base by mixing together vanilla protein powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, runny peanut butter, and a bit of dairy-free milk until smooth.

fold in the chocolate chips, then press the mixture into parchment-lined muffin cups, creating a small well in the center of each.

next, whip up the brownie filling by blending almond flour, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a splash of dairy-free milk until you have a smooth, chocolatey mixture.

spoon this into the wells of the cookie base, filling each one generously.

pop the cups into the freezer for a few hours to set, and they’re ready to enjoy!

if you’re feeling extra indulgent, you can top them with melted chocolate before serving.

when to enjoy them

these brookie snack cups are the perfect treat any time you need a sweet pick-me-up.

they’re great as a post-workout snack, thanks to the added protein, or as a midday treat to keep your energy up.

they’re also perfect for dessert when you want something a little different but totally satisfying.

whether you’re enjoying them with a cup of coffee or as an on-the-go snack, they’re sure to hit the spot.

substitution options

there are plenty of ways to customize these brookie snack cups to suit your taste or dietary needs.

if you’re not a fan of peanut butter, you can easily swap it out for almond butter, cashew butter, or even sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version.

for the chocolate chips, feel free to use your favorite type, whether that’s dark chocolate, semi-sweet, or even a dairy-free option.

you can also experiment with the protein powder—try a chocolate-flavored one for an extra boost of cocoa flavor, or use your preferred plant-based protein.

storage

to keep your brookie snack cups fresh and delicious, store them in an airtight container in the freezer.

they’ll keep well for up to two weeks, although they’re so tasty, they might not last that long!

when you’re ready to eat one, just let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, and enjoy.
