Directions
1. Preheat your oven at 360°F(180°C).
2. In a saucepan, melt chocolate chips and butter over low heat. Whisk gently with a wooden spoon until smooth and set aside.

Notes: To make these mini brownie bombs the best they can be, use the best dark chocolate you can find. An intensely dark chocolate with a minimum of 70% or more cocoa is what you want.
