Equipment

  • stainless steel or glass mixing bowl
  • 8" brownie pan

Ingredients

  • ½ cup vegan butter 1 stick
  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips or dark chocolate bars
  • ⅓ cup cane sugar
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup cacao powder
  • ½ cup vegan egg replacer of choice I used JUST Egg
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch optional
  • 1 cup all purpose flour - plus 1 tablespoon
  • sprinkle of course sea salt on top

Optional Fold-ins:

  • 1/1 - 1 cups raw walnuts
  • ⅓ cup vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line an 8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Lightly grease the inside of the parchment paper.
  • Create a double boiler setup with a soup pot filled with a few cups of water and then place the stainless steel mixing bowl on top. Turn the heat to medium. Add the vegan butter and chocolate. USing a wooden spoon, stir continuously until fully melted. About halfway through, turn the stove heat to low so you don't burn the chocolate. turn off heat and remove bowl from heat.
  • Add in the sugars, vanilla extract, salt, cacao powder and egg replacer of choice. See notes. Briskly stir or whisk until smooth.
  • Stir in the flour and starch until silky smooth. your batter should be nice and glossy. Fold in optional nuts and additional chocolate chips.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture into the brownie pan.
  • Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes
  • Pull from oven and sprinkle optional coarse sea salt on top. I love fleur de sel if you have it!
  • Allow brownies to cool for at least twenty minutes before slicing and serving. Best served warm. Store leftovers in the fridge.
