    When I went gluten free the first things I needed to figure out how to get back into my life were brownies. I adapted this recipe from Gluten Free Goddess (http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com). All purpose flour or gluten free, these are my perfect brownies. Crispy top with a moist, silky center. Rich and decadent with the sweet almond flavor coming through and slightly floral notes from the dark chocolate. I use this recipe as a basis for varying brownie recipes.

    Ingredients

    • 4 oz 60% cocoa Ghiradeli bittersweet chocolate bar, roughly chopped
    • 3 tbsp cocoa powder (Hershey's, or any non-Dutch processed)*
    • 1 tbsp canola oil (or vegetable)
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
    • 2 eggs
    • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
    • 2 tsp gluten free vanilla
    • 1/2 cup of almond flour (I used a coffee bean grinder to grind fresh almonds)
    • 1/4 cup brown rice flour
    • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
    • 1/4 tsp baking soda

    Directions

    1.
    Preheat oven to 350˚F and grease a 8'' X 8'' pan.
    2.
    Melt the butter in the microwave. Add in the chopped chocolate and stir until it's melted. Add the cocoa powder and oil and mix to combine. Add the cocoa powder and oil and mix to combine.
    3.
    Beat the eggs in a mixer with a paddle until they are a bit frothy.
    4.
    Add the sugar and the vanilla and beat until smooth.
    5.
    Add the butter/chocolate mixture and beat until smooth.
    6.
    Whisk together the brown rice flour, almond meal, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Add to the mixer. Scrape down the bowl, then mix until combined.
    7.
    Pour into the pan and smooth so it is even distributed throughout the pan.
    8.
    Bake for 10 minutes, then turn. Bake another 10-15, until a toothpick comes out mostly clean (err on the side of moist...overcooked, dry brownies are the opposite of what you want. You want soft, moist brownies)
    9.
    Cool on a rack until cool to the touch (I know it's difficult to resist the temptation when your whole house will be smelling of chocolate, but if you try to cut them too soon -and I know this from persoanl experience- they will fall apart).
    10.
    Cut, serve, and enjoy!
