Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a mini muffin pan. Set aside.
Over a double boiler, melt chocolate chips and butter. Take of the simmering water when only few streaks of chocolate are left. Whisk until smooth. Let cool.
Add sugar and cocoa powder ( sifted straight over the bowl of melted chocolate ) and whisk again.
Add eggs, one at a time, and whisk well after each addition.
Add salt and almond extract. Whisk again.
Sift flour over the bowl and fold in until no streaks of flour remain.
Scoop into prepared pan.
Bake 13 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick shows few moist crumbs. It's good to pull them out of the oven as soon as the edges appear baked and pull away from the sides of pan.
Cool brownie bites in the pan for about 2 minutes, then transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the glaze by melting together the remaining chocolate chips and butter. Whisk until smooth. Dunk each brownie bite tops down into chocolate. Sprinkle with sprinkles or sea salt while the glaze is still wet. Let set.
Notes
I highly recommend trying almond extract instead of vanilla extract. It adds a nice unexpected nutty flavor to brownies. You can sprinkle them with sea salt for addition of crunch to every bite!
