Brownies are the kind of dessert I truly love to make and never get tired of; it’s always very easy to make, super chocolatey and everyone’s favorite. I recently became addicted to this vegan version and I make them over and over again. With no eggs and no dairy, you get wonderfully fudgy vegan brownies, with a delectable texture and a deep chocolate flavor that non-vegans will love too.
If you want, you can add some chopped nuts or any other addition to the brownies, but to tell you the truth? I love them a-la-natural: chocolatey and melt in the mouth, with chocolate chips melted in each and every bite.
