Gluten Free Recipe Sweet & Salty Brownies

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup softened unsalted butter

4 large eggs

1 cup organic palm sugar

6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons cornstarch

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or sea salt

1 teaspoon instant espresso powder

2 teaspoons pure Madagascar vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups salted, dry roasted peanuts rough chopped

Let's Bake!

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a "9x12" baking dish with parchment paper

Put the chocolate chips and butter in the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to roughly combine.

Add eggs, palm sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, salt, espresso and vanilla and blend until combined.

Expect lumpy batter

Spread the mixture into the baking dish you already prepared with parchment paper

Sprinkle the nuts over the top and gently press into the batter

Bake for 20 minutes or until the batter is slightly firm for the touch

DO NOT OVERCOOK. YOU WANT THE BROWNIES TO BE FIRM YET SOFT WITH A MOIST CENTER

Cut into squares and serve with almond milk....yum!
