Guide Review - Review of Gluten Free Pantry® Chocolate Truffle Brownies Gourmet Baking Mix
I prepared Gluten-Free Pantry® Chocolate Truffle Brownies twice. Once using butter and again, following the lactose-free preparation directions, I used roasted hazelnut oil. Both versions were outstanding, with good, chewy texture. Hazelnut oil and 1 cup of walnuts added a great nutty flavor to this popular packaged gluten free mix.
Carefully watch baking times with this product- like any brownie recipe, it’s easy to under bake them. Check for doneness by inserting a clean toothpick into the middle of the brownies and bake longer if necessary. When the toothpick comes out clean, the brownies are done.
If you don't enjoy deep, rich chocolate flavor, this brownie may overpower you- it has incredible, deep chocolate flavor. And if you are a "cake-type" brownie aficionado you may not appreciate the chewy texture.Ingredients: Sugar, chocolate chips (sugar, chocolate liquor, cocoa butter, soy lecithin, vanilla extract), cocoa butter, soy lecithin, vanilla extract), cocoa powder, white rice flour, potato starch, corn starch, xanthan gum, salt.
