They’re chocolatey, they’re gooey, they’re sweet and they’re oh so addicting. These Double Chocolate Brownie Bites are the perfect dessert for any chocolate lover. The best part is they’re gluten free, nut free, naturally egg free and can easily be dairy free/vegan!
I have to tell you, these cookies are favorites in my house. They are even the favorite cookie of some of the rest of my family that doesn’t live with me.
My point is, if you love chocolate, you’re bound to adore these cookies.

What makes these chocolate brownie bites so unique?
- Honey - For that deep sweetness that just takes these egg free cookies to the next level.
- Dark brown sugar- The dark brown sugar makes these cookies have that richness that you only get from a molasses like flavor.
- Butter (or vegan baking stick)- The butter blends perfectly with the honey and dark brown sugar creating this medley of sweet, rich, buttery perfection.
Can I easily make these vegan?
Yes! These cookies can easily be vegan with just a few substitutes:
- Make sure the gluten free flour that you’re using does not contain any dairy.
- Instead of using butter, make sure to use a vegan baking stick.
- Make sure the chocolate chips that you use are allergy friendly and dairy free.
These double chocolate brownie bites are super easy to make but, make sure you chill the dough before baking the cookies. If you don't, the cookies will spread all over the place.
This recipe makes about 32 cookies. If you only want to make a small batch, wrap half the dough in plastic wrap, put in a zip top bag and freeze.
When you're ready to make more cookies, take the dough out of the freezer and let it thaw in the fridge overnight.
I hope you love these Double Chocolate Brownie Bites!
No one will ever believe they’re gluten free and allergy friendly! Enjoy!

Can you substitute GF flour for regular flour? What would the amounts be? I’ve been drooling over your page for several days now, I’d like to try these.
Thank you.

Hi Amy! Thank you! Yes you can! I cannot test it due to celiac but I made these years ago before my daughter was diagnosed. If using AP flour, for this recipe you only need to use packed cups of all purpose flour so 252 grams. Hope that helps!!!
