This is what dreams are made of.
Are you more of a fudge brownie lover or cake brownie lover? Do you even love brownies? Or do you prefer blondes? Or do you not care one bit as long as you have a brownie in your hand?
I am the latter, although I do enjoy a blondie to keep things exciting around here.
With the holidays approaching, I can only think of all the parties, family gatherings and cookie exchange parties that are on the horizon. I could make a tried and true recipe but that is not fun. Nor the style of a food blogger. Rather, I adore experimenting and coming to each gathering prepared with a dish full of new recipes.
So when Cooking Light came out with their holiday issue, I was ecstatic with all their delicious treats. One being Fudge Brownie Pops. A fun spin on the cake pop, but 10x better as chocolate is involved.
Fudge style, not one but two types of chocolate and buttery toffee. There is not much there I have self control with. The brownie mixture is simple to make; melt semi sweet chocolate chips, mix with dark cocoa powder, flour, a bit of sugar and an egg. Then bake, cool and crumble. Mix with coconut oil to create a fudge like consistency that is then dipped into melted chocolate and finished off with a toffee bits.
Upon the chocolate coating cooling, add the lollipop stick and you are good to go!
These brownie pops are the love child of two of my favorite things. First we have dark chocolate. Swoon. And secondly, toffee. Its practically caramelized sugar.
How can you say no?

Save RecipeIngredients
- Brownies:
- 2 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped (or morsels)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil + 2 Tbsp, divided
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg white
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup special dark cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil
- Toppings:
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate, chopped (or morsels)
- 1 Tbso coconut oil
- 1/4 cup toffee bits, crushed
- 25 lollipops
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9x9 inch glass baking dish with baking spray. Set aside.
- For brownies: combine chocolate and 1/4 cup coconut oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds or until mixture melts, stirring after 15 seconds. Repeat for 15 seconds until completely melted. Add sugar, vanilla, egg, and egg white; stir until well blended.
- In a small bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt; whisk together well. Add flour mixture to chocolate mixture, stirring just until combined. Scrape batter into prepared baking dish. The mixture will be thick. Use a spoon to spread out evenly. Bake for 17 - 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in dish.
- Crumble brownies with both hands. Working in batches, place crumbled brownies in a food processor and process to fine crumbs. Remove from blender and add to medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons coconut oil; mix until it forms a ball. (I used my hands and squeezed the mixture together to ensure the coconut oil was fully incorporated.)
- Scoop heaping tablespoon brownie mixture with a spoon; roll into a ball.
- Place topping chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds or until chocolate melts, stirring after 15 seconds. Repeat until completely melted. Dip balls into melted chocolate; dredge in toffee bites, pressing gently to adhere. Insert a lollipop stick into center of each ball.
- Refrigerate until chocolate sets (about 20 minutes).
