Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Our gluten free journey continues and this time with my husband. The good news is, it is helping and he has done so well with his new way of eating (and lost about 10 pounds as a bonus) that I decided to make him a treat this weekend.

I am so proud of my husband for his self control and adapting to a new gluten free lifestyle.. I decided to reward him by making him some gluten free brownies this weekend.

He couldn’t believe they were gluten free. These brownies are moist and chewy, not too cake like and that’s exactly what these brownies were.

The only bad thing about this recipe is that it only makes a 8 x 8 but if you want more just double it and use a 9 x 13 pan.

I can honestly say these are THE BEST gluten free brownies I have had or made.

Ingredients

Gluten Free Flour Mix. I make my own mix using this recipe but you can use your favorite flour mix.

Chocolate. This recipe uses a combination of semi sweet and milk chocolate chips. If you want more intense chocolate, use all semi sweet or even dark chocolate chips.

How to Make Gluten Free Brownies

  • Melt sugar, butter and cream in a sauce pan on the stove top.Cook over medium heat until it begins to boil.
  • Add in chocolate chips and stir until melted. It may look like your chocolate is seizing up but trust me it will be o.k.
  • Add in eggs and vanilla and keep stirring.
  • Mix in the flour, baking soda and salt and stir until smooth.
  • Pour that into your greased 8 x 8 pan.

  • Bake at 325 for about 25 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out clean. Don’t overbake.

Can You Freeze Brownies?

Just so my husband wouldn’t be tempted to eat them all at once I cut them into squares and then wrapped them up individually in plastic wrap and froze them. So when he wants to reward himself for being a good boy he can grab one out of the freezer and indulge!
