Gluten -free Double Chocolate Brownies – Bake with Grace

The name’s a mouthful and so are these brownies. I have jam packed them with chocolately goodness and they are perfect for a dessert or with coffee for afternoon tea.

If I’m having a mid week dinner party, I make them on the weekend and pop them into the freezer until the day I need them. A scoop of icecream is all I need to present a delicious dessert to my guests.

The trick to knowing if a brownie is done, is to test with a toothpick or cake tester, but press it in about a third of the way from the edge of the tin. If it comes out clean, it’s done. If you test in the centre, it will always come out gooey. This is a bit tricky as you want them gooey, but not undercooked.
