Easy Double Chocolate Brownies
Gluten-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free, low-glycemic, heart-healthy
Here is a quick and easy recipe for gluten-free brownies that taste delicious and are good for your heart and waistline. I always love walnuts in a chocolate brownie, so this one is packed full of healthy walnuts. Of course, you can substitute any of your favorite nuts if you choose. I used such simple pantry ingredients and no mess techniques to create a quick and satisfying chocolate sweet. If you make these double chocolate brownies with dark chocolate chips that are sweetened with coconut sugar you will have a truly low-glycemic treat that will not spike your blood sugars. Plant-based vegan butter makes these brownies extra gooey and irresistible. Guilt-free treats are waiting!
