Gluten Free Chocolate Brownies With 3 Toppings! Simple recipe for a quick chocolate dessert with orange sauce, ice cream or cream.
For a long time, Family💚 wanted to brush up on this recipe. You know that I am not crazy about chocolate except in the ways and quantities that I say … and then here they are the perfect brownies (for me!).
This recipe for my taste is perfectly balanced, not too sweet, moist, but does not stick to the palate, melt and pleasant in the mouth.
With this dose, you will get 16 brownies.
Wonderful not only naturally, but also with any combination: from the classic tuft of cream, to a scoop of ice cream (perfect with vanilla, but also with berries), or with an orange sauce if you love contrast.
The basic recipe allows you any combination, without being too heavy and heavy.
You can replace butter with lactose-free butter!
The size of the pan is quite important for a perfect yield: by changing the sizes, you must also change the cooking time.
The pan I used measures 24 × 21 cm, for this dose even slightly smaller is fine, but I don't recommend a larger one.
Leave a couple of teaspoons of sugar to mix with the corn starch, before adding it to the orange juice, this will prevent lumps from forming.

Butter 280 gr
dark chocolate 225 gr

salt 1 tsp
eggs 6
flour 150 gr

How brownies are made
Preheat the oven to 175/180 ° C. Grease a 30 × 25 pan with butter to keep the parchment paper from moving, then line with parchment paper, leaving the protrusion on all sides.
Pour the chopped dark chocolate (cut with a knife) into a heat-resistant bowl, add the unsweetened cocoa powder and the soluble coffee.
Place the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the butter comes to a simmer, about 5 minutes, swirling the pan from time to time. Immediately pour the hot butter over the chocolate mixture and let it sit for 2 minutes. Stir until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted, then set aside.
Combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, salt and eggs one at a time in another larger bowl. We mix with an electric mixer at high speed until it becomes light clear and frothy, about 7-8 minutes.
With the whisk on, pour the slightly cooled chocolate and butter mixture and mix until everything is combined
Sift the flour into the mixture and use a rubber spatula to mix gently from top to bottom to maintain the foamy consistency.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and level the top with a spatula. Bake on the central shelf of the oven at 175 ° until the dough swells (about 20 minutes).
Remove the cake from the oven and gently beat the pan on a flat surface 3-4 times until the brownies deflate slightly creating the characteristic crepe. This will allow the cake to be compact and level.
Re-bake and bake another 20 minutes by placing a sheet of aluminum foil on the top shelf of the oven. At this point the cake is cooked even if it will still be moist inside with the toothpick test. This is the exact consistency. Let the brownies cool still in the pan and cut into squares only when everything has cooled down. To cut brownies flawlessly, dip the knife in hot water and dry it for each cut.

Red Velvet Brownie Ingredients
-Butter: While brownies usually have oil, we want 1/2 cup (one stick) of room temperature butter to be our fat. It makes the brownies so much richer.
-Brown sugar: With 1 cup of brown sugar we can get a chewy and sweet brownie with nice edges.
-Eggs: We need 2 room temperature eggs to bind the brownie together.
-Vanilla: With 1 teaspoon of the vanilla extract we can get a good flavor base.
-Flour: We need 1 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour to be our gluten base for the brownies.
-Cocoa powder: Red velvet cake is made with chocolate cake base so we need 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to get these chocolatey.
-Baking powder: Acting as your leaving agent is 1 teaspoon of baking powder.
-Red gel food color: We need 1 teaspoon of red gel food coloring to make these red velvet brownies really red.
-White chocolate chips: To scatter throughout the brownies is 1/2 cup of yummy chocolate.

Can I use Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips Instead?
Yes! It just changes the appearance a bit, but I think dark chocolate chips in these brownies are my all time favorite! For Valentine’s Day though, adding some white chocolate chips is fun. For an extra chocolaty treat, add 1/3 cup of both white chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate chips!

Notes
*You can halve the food color to get more of a red velvet hint. Natural food colors can also be used but generally yield a more purple color that’s much less vibrant.
A traditional red cake flavor comes from an acidic ingredient (usually buttermilk or vinegar) with cocoa powder to create a unique flavor and texture. Red food dye is for its namesake. True red velvet cake is chocolate with an acidic twist.
Can Red Velvet Brownies be Frozen?
Yes, just bake, cool and store in an airtight container. I love freezing individually cut brownies for single serve desserts later on!
I’m a huge fan of using natural red food dye, but just know your brownies won’t be as red. Natural red dye most often comes from beets, which is great, however in my experience, the color is more muted and more purple color than true red. It’s still fun though!!
