Nico Norena—the Miami-based social media star known for his over-the-top desserts on IG and TikTok (@succulentbite)—shares a recipe for easy spiced brownies from his new cookbook, The Succulent Bite.
"In this recipe, you take the already-sweet, gooey, mouthwatering brownie and you make it interesting. The addition of cinnamon, ginger and allspice is sure to be a yummy surprise." —Nico

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate and butter and stir until smooth. In a large bowl, add the chocolate-butter mixture, flour, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, syrup, sugars and eggs. Using an electric hand mixer, mix the ingredients at low speed until they're well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 30 minutes, then let it cool for 1 hour before serving.
