Brownie - Gluten free and Vegan

 I couldn't seem to find a recipe for brownies that I could make and be completely satisfied with, and to add to that challenge, my husband gave up wheat, and the recipe challenges became even more challenging. 
  Anytime I made homemade brownies, they were either too gooey, too hard, or too fudgy, just not what I had in mind. This recipe, after a few trials and errors, is precisely what I crave in a brownie, and it's a crowd-pleaser. 
Pure. Chocolate. Heaven. This brownie recipe guarantees that you will never go back to a boxed brownie mix, let alone try yet another brownie recipe. The bad news? Eating the entire tray of fudge brownies in one sitting.
These brownies were not too fudgy, moist, and chocolaty, with crispy edges and crackly tops. It calls for essential pantry ingredients for a gluten-free recipe, and it's hardly more complicated than using a mix.
 As for the brownies, they're true perfection – glossy, fudgy, and filled with rich chocolate flavor. Trust me, you're are going to have a hard time keeping them around.
