Gluten-Free German Chocolate Brownies

Gluten-Free German Choc Brownies

Since I’m not able to eat dessert out often I enjoy trying new gluten-free desserts at home. And since no one else in my family needs to eat gluten-free I try to make them not realize it’s gluten-free, until I eat it of course. The only complaint I’ve gotten is that they can’t eat as much, which isn’t a bad thing. Gluten-free desserts are very dense.

Starting with a box brownie mix makes these Gluten-Free German Chocolate Brownies faster and easier to the table.
