Easy Gluten-Free Fudge Brownies
1/2 cup unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs, whisked together, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour blend, (recipe below)**
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1.Preheat oven to 350F. Grease an 8x8 baking dish with butter.
2.In a saucepan over low heat melt the butter. Add the chopped chocolate and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is completely melted and combined with butter. Remove from heat, whisk in the sugar and salt, and allow the mixture to cool for 10 minutes.
3.To the cooled chocolate mixture whisk in the eggs and vanilla until incorporated. Add the flour blend and chocolate chips and mix until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Tap the pan on the countertop three or four times to rid batter of any air bubbles. Bake in the oven for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean. The center should still be gooey. Allow to cool before cutting and serving.
** Note: If you are using a different all-purpose gluten-free flour blend than the recipe below check to see if the recipe contains xanthan gum. If the recipe does not contain any xanthan gum add 1/2 teaspoon to this recipe.
