Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet Potato Brownie Bites.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and generously greasing a 10x13-inch baking dish to ensure your brownies release effortlessly.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, blend together white sugar and softened butter using an electric mixer until the mixture transforms into a smooth, creamy delight.
Step 3
Next, fold in the grated sweet potato, mixing until well combined.
Step 4
Gradually add in all-purpose flour, chopped pecans if you choose to include them, eggs, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, stirring thoroughly after each addition until your batter is silky and cohesive.
Step 5
Pour this luscious brownie batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to create a perfect base.
Step 6
Slide the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean, signaling that your brownies are ready.
Step 7
While the brownies are baking, whip up a simple glaze by whisking together confectioners' sugar and melted butter in a bowl, adding just enough milk to achieve a smooth, thin consistency.
Step 8
Once the brownies are out of the oven, lavishly spread the warm glaze over them, allowing it to soak in as they cool.
Step 9
Finally, resist the temptation to dive in immediately; let the brownies cool completely before slicing them into irresistible squares.
Step 10
Enjoy the sweet, comforting flavors that will surely become a favorite in your home.
How to Serve
Serve the brownies warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
