Ingredients

• 120 grams Unsalted butter
• 200 grams Dark chocolate
• 150 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Brown sugar
• 2 whole Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 100 grams Rice flour
• 20 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
• 50 grams Chocolate chips or chunks (optional)
• 50 grams Chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

Melt the butter and dark chocolate together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in short intervals in the microwave. Stir until smooth and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth batter.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the rice flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

If using, fold in the chocolate chips or chunks and/or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).

Step 9

Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift them out using the parchment overhang and cut them into 9 squares.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your fudgy rice flour brownies!
