Vegan and Gluten Free Brownies

You know you have a great brownie recipe when the brownies have a thin shiny layer of chocolate on top.  Plus they are vegan and gluten free!  I am just over the moon with these.  For me, it can be difficult developing dessert recipes.  So, when I nail one, it's like a party.

I made the brownies in cupcake papers; you can also bake the brownies in a lined 9" square cake pan.

Ingredients:

1 stick of Soy Free Earth Balance butter

1 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate Chunks

3/4 cup organic pure cane sugar 

1/4 t sea salt 

2 organic flax seed eggs

1 1/3 cup Bobs Red Mill gluten free all-purpose flour 

1/4 cup water

Method:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Put cupcake papers into the cupcake pan; set-aside.

Melt the chocolate and butter, remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Beat in the sugar, salt, and flax eggs.  Using a large wooden spoon, mix in flour until thoroughly combined.  The mixture will become dry; add the water and mix until a batter forms.  The finished batter will be very thick.  Now spoon into cupcake papers, filling each half way.

Bake 12-15 minutes, or until you a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the middle of each brownie.
