Helllllllllllllllo lover.
These brownies, my friends.
These brownies are everything you're looking for in a brownies.
Rich. Cakey. Chocolatey. Just the right amount of sweet.
Plus they're made in one bowl!
And, to top it off, they are free of gluten, dairy, grains, or refined sugar.
They are the perfect make ahead treat for holidays (hi there Valentine's Day, I see you!), parties, or any day you want a little treat.
A few notes to keep in mind before you dive in: these brownies are sweetened with only a touch of maple syrup, so they won't be as sweet as the kind out of the box.
Don't worry, they're still amazing and won't leave you with with a sugar hangover.
They also need a few minutes to setup after they come out of the oven, so give them a good 15-20 minutes to cool completely.
It's hard, I know.
Finally, I prefer to store these in the fridge, covered, and the allow them to come to room temperature to serve.
I hope you enjoy these incredible, flourless treats.
Now, let's make some One-Bowl Flourless Double Chocolate Brownies!
