Need a pick me up and a fudgy chocolate fix? A celebrity chef used to sell 1,000 of a similar gluten brownie each week. Why? Because they are fudgy, the coffee it contains not only provides a boost but enhances the chocolate flavor, and they are packed with walnuts and chocolate chips. These gluten free pick me up brownies are no different and also have a dense texture typical of fudge. They do, however, differ from most gluten free brownies because they do not contain gum or added starch such as tapioca, potato, corn, or arrowroot. Maybe you’ll decide to sell them too!
By the way, that famous chef is Food Network star, Ina Garten. She used to sell a gluten version in her specialty food shop, The Barefoot Contessa, in The Hamptons. However, it closed about four years ago. Not a biggy for us, as her brownies weren’t gluten free!
She suggests rapping the pan on the oven’s rack mid-baking to remove the air that is between the batter and the pan. I did so. However, I found my brownies were rising well above the pan, in the center, which would have created a cake-like texture. (I had halved her recipe.) So, I kept rapping them on the oven’s rack, even after the midway rap. I wanted to create that fudgy texture that she spoke about. So, if you prefer, just reduce the baking powder to half the amount and skip the rapping. Or…if you prefer a cake-like/regular brownie texture, use a little larger pan and omit the rapping.
Take one bite of these gluten free pick me up brownies and you know they contain coffee. However, they do more than pick you up. They lift your spirits. They're chewy, fudgy, and delicious!
