From Scratch Brownies with Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
My number one goal as a seasoned gluten-free baker is to transform recipes into even better versions and these homemade gluten-free brownies are no exception! While they are made from scratch, they are just as easy as using a brownie mix and yield even better results! If you love extra fudgy brownies with chewy outer edges, a thin crackly crust and gooey moist interiors then enjoy this easy brownie recipe made with gluten-free flour.
Grease a 9X13" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and preheat the oven to 325ºF. TIP: Baking brownies in metal pan makes them fudgier with chewy edges.
In a large saucepan combine the sugar, cubed butter, and water over medium heat. Bring to just a boil, stirring constantly. Immediately remove from heat and stir in 2 cups chocolate chips until melted. Cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
1 ½ cups sugar, ⅔ cups unsalted butter, ¼ cup water, 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips,
Whisk in eggs and vanilla vigorously into chocolate mixture.
4 eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Stir in the gluten-free flour, unsweetened baking cocoa, baking soda, and salt to the saucepan. Mix in the extra cup of chocolate chips (leave out this extra cup if you are using brownies as a base for Buckeye Turtle Brownies.)
1½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt
Pour into prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few fudgy crumbs. Cool in pan on wire rack.

Notes
Halving Recipe
To make a 8X8-inch pan of brownies, halve all the ingredients. The brownies will be slightly thicker, so the baking time remains the same. Start checking at 35 minutes, but can take up to 40 minutes.
Dairy-Free Adaptation
Replace the butter with plant-based vegan butter sticks and reduce the salt by half. Use dairy-free chocolate chips, such as Enjoy Life.The recommended flour, Cup4Cup, does contain milk powder and will have to be replaced with an all-purpose gluten-free flour blend safe for dairy-free diet.Recipe adapted from Taste of Home
