Brownies (non chocolate)


Brownies (non chocolate)



Inspired by:
Family Circle Children’s Cookbook Chocolate Brownies.

Why?
I am taking dessert to a friend’s house on the weekend, so am experimenting with ideas.

Time Taken: 
10 minutes preparation+15-20 minutes baking

Dirty Dishes:
Saucepan, wooden spoon, measuring cups, tray

I used:
200g dairy free margarine
2 cups brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence/powder
1 1/2 cups gluten free plain flour
2 eggs

What I did:
Preheat oven to 180C. 
Grease/line a 20cm x30cm tin. 
Over a very low heat, melt margarine in a saucepan, stirring with a wooden spoon. 
Once melted, add sugar and vanilla and mix well. 
Take off heat (turn off stove), add flour and stir until smooth. 
Then add eggs and beat well. 
Pour into tin and bake for 15-20mins (if you want them fudgy inside) or until the tester comes out clean (if you prefer them more cakey). 
Let them cool, then refrigerate, or eat warm.

Comments after eating Brownies!
Yum! Delicious and fudgy, without the chocolate taste!

What I would do different:
I’m going to try coffee flavor next!
