How to Make Gluten-Free Brownies
INGREDIENTS –
for the brownies
- eggs
- Nutella
- coconut flour
- chocolate chips
for the frosting
- cream cheese
- Nutella
- powdered sugar
- cocoa powder
- sea salt
- milk
DIRECTIONS –
Add the eggs to a mixing bowl and whip for 6-8 minutes, until frothy.
Warm the Nutella just until it loosens and becomes soft, then add the Nutella to the eggs and beat until combined.
Add the coconut flour and mix, then add the chocolate chips and combine.
Pour the batter into a prepared pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 25-30 minutes. They are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (if it comes out very chocolatey, you probably went through a chocolate chip, in which case, clean it off and reinsert it elsewhere to test).
To prepare the frosting, add the cream cheese and Nutella to the mixer bowl and combine.
Add the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and sea salt and combine.
Add the milk, starting with 1 1/2 teaspoons. Add more (by the teaspoon) until it reaches the desired consistency. If you want a deeper chocolate flavor, add more cocoa powder to taste. Increase milk if necessary.
Once your brownies are cool, spread the frosting onto the brownies, then serve and enjoy!
NOTES
- The secret to these brownies is whipping the eggs to incorporate lots of air. It will make the overall texture lighter and fluffier. The coconut flour adds to the flavor and gives it a better texture (I’ve made these without the coconut flour, and we definitely prefer it with it!).
- Add more chocolate chips to the batter if desired, or toss some on the top before you bake it.
- Add more cocoa powder to the frosting if you’d like a deeper flavor.
- You can add one more egg (4 total) to the batter for a more cake-like brownie.
