Instructions

2. Preheat the oven according to the boxed brownie mix directions.
4. Following those directions, whip up the brownies.
6. Pour the batter into a brownie pan and bake.
8. Once the brownies are done, take them out of the oven and set them aside to cool completely.
10. In the meantime, let’s make The Baker Chick’s cupcakes…
12. Preheat the oven to 350F. In a small bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt.
14. Make a small well in the middle of the bowl and add the water, oil and vanilla. Whisk together until smooth.
16. Evenly distribute the batter between two liners and sprinkle with chocolate chips if using. Bake for about 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a cupcake comes out clean.
18. Let your cupcakes cool before frosting. We used canned, pink vanilla frosting. You can use any canned or homemade frosting. See The Baker Chick for a fantastic dark chocolate frosting!
20. Using a heart-shaped cutter, cut out heart brownie shapes from the brownie pan. Best to get these from the center of the pan. But if you’re a brownie edge lover, like our friend Jared, then you should stick to the edges.
22. Place heart brownie bites on top of the frosted cupcakes.
