Ever wonder how to make a delicious brownie that is free from the Top 8 Food Allergens? Just keep reading because I have a decadent, Mocha Fudge Brownie just waiting for you to make. 
BUT,Β I came across these Mocha Fudge Brownies from Crystal Carver’s cookbook, [amazon_textlink asin=’1629011304′ text=’Sweet & Simple Gluten-free Baking’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’xandfriefood-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’dd513843-291c-11e7-b5da-7794235e2833′]Β and I had to take another “go” at it. Needless to say, they turned out Ah-Ma-Zing even thoughΒ I changed some of the ingredients to make it dairy & egg free.Β
The Cookbook
Crystal loved baking, but when both daughters were diagnosed with a gluten intolerance, she decided to help others and shoe them how gluten-free baked goods can be delicious, nutritious, and simple to make! Within the pages of her cookbook, you’ll find dozens of irresistible recipes like Mocha Fudge Brownie, Β just waiting to please your family’s palate! Crystal includesΒ handy baker’s notes, substitution solutions, and full-page color photos, as well asΒ walks you through each recipe showing how easy it can be to bake gluten-free. (Keep reading for our cookbook giveaway). You can also check out her blog, Gluten-free Palate.comΒ for even more recipes and resources including this scrumptious Gluten-free Chocolate Cake.
Mocha Fudge Brownie
This Mocha Fudge Brownie combines 3 elements that makes my heart happy! Chocolate, coffee & a buttery shortbread crust. YUM, YUM & YUM! If you can do dairy & egg, Β just follow the recipe as is. I found this sweetened condensed coconut milk that works perfectly as a substitution if needed. It’s like drinking liquid gold! Pick up several cans of it so you can use it later of yourΒ Coffee Granita, like we did.
As for the egg replacer, the first time I made this, I used an aqua faba egg. Everyone loved the taste of the brownie, but it was a little too soft and gooey for my liking. I also made this using a flax egg and the consistency was much more like a chewy brownie, so base your replacer on what type of brownie you prefer. These delicious looking Gluten-free Vegan Brownies from Beaming Baker also flax eggs.

A girl after my own heart
These are so moist looking. I MUST make then!
Let me know when you do !
I love a little coffee in my brownies! These look and sound fantastic! Beautiful pics too!
I made these and truly love them. the shortbread crust is yummy. Just a question though. I baked mine
longer until the centre was set. I find the brownie portion soft like a molton cake, no lava though. is this how how the texture should be? I mean regardless im eating it cause its yummy. I think I ended up cooking mine almost 20 minutes more until the centre was set.
