These flourless gluten-free brownies are made with dark chocolate, butter, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and vanilla. Sweetened with coconut sugar and topped with a bit of flaky sea salt, they're an easy, fudgy brownie recipe the whole family will enjoy. Here's what separates bakers from the rest of the global population: To a non-baker, a brownie is a brownie.

Gluten Free and Paleo Brownie/Cookie Bars AKA Brookies

You wouldn't know it by looking at these, but they were a labor of love.  Not the recipe, per se; the recipe is actually very straightforward and requires two bowl, a spoon and a baking pan (you know how I love a simple recipe), but the concept. See, I made this recipe in honor of someone pretty darn special: my friend Meriem. When I was planning my wedding, Meriem was my one-woman cheerleading squad. When I was tired and overwhelmed with details, Meriem reminded me that even the tiniest details ... Read More about Gluten Free and Paleo Brownie/Cookie Bars AKA Brookies

Dark Chocolate Peppermint Brownies (Gluten Free and Paleo)

Get ready for a lot of chocolate this week. Not just any chocolate, but two recipes that call for multiple forms of chocolate, and produce treats that should come with some sort of warning label: caution: not for beginners. This overload of chocolatey deliciousness was a total fluke, because the uncertainty of the kitchen renovation* long ago forced me to totally cut ties with my trusty editorial calendar, so these days I'm back to cooking and baking what I feel like and what befits the season, ...

Double Chocolate Brownie Cookies (Gluten Free and Whole Grain)

It's entirely possible that I've been on a bit of a cookie bender for the last few weeks, and for that I'm not the least bit sorry or even ashamed. Life's too short to skimp on the cookies and, since I can only eat them sparingly, I like to make them count. Like twice-the-chocolate kind of count. From the title (and, admittedly, appearance) of these chocolate brownie cookies, you would think they would be kind of...horrible for you. While they are soft and dense like a brownie, and oozing ...

Heart Beet Brownies

When it comes to Valentine's Day and other Hallmark holidays, the only thing that matters is the food. Valentine's Day is a worthy holiday because it's an excuse to eat lots of fancy chocolate, and I absolutely endorse any plan that involves a lot of chocolate (as you may have deduced from this, the 4th chocolate recipe in a row), and therefore consider Valentine's Day to be a valid holiday. Other benefits of Valentine's Day include buying heart-shaped cookie cutters, and an excuse to eat ... Read More about Heart Beet Brownies

Double Chocolate Black Bean Brownies

Satisfy your chocolate craving with these easy and healthy flourless double chocolate brownies. They're naturally gluten free! (Recipe updated May 2023) Ever since I started revealing my excessive baking habit to the world blogging, I am constantly asked by friends and family "who eats all of that?" I guess I should - and do - take it as a compliment, because the implication is "I know you don't eat everything you bake because if you did you'd be as big as a house and you're not". So, ...

The Best Gluten Free and Dairy Free Snacks

So, I had a baby. And for all the warnings I got about adjusting from one kid to two, the development I was least prepared for was colic and reflux. But here we are, 8 months later, with a baby who is finally more comfortable - but only because I have eliminated dairy and soy from my diet (he's also on medication).  While elimination diets are nothing new to me, dairy is the one common allergen I don't have a lot of experience working around. I cut it out very briefly, around the ... Read More about The Best Gluten Free and Dairy Free Snacks
