Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1.5 cups Granulated Sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown Sugar, packed
- 3 Large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Gluten-Free Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to lift the fudge bars out later.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave or in a saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
Allow the butter-sugar mixture to cool slightly before adding the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Add the vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until combined.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the gluten-free semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula to smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly firm to the touch. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove from the oven and allow the fudge bars to cool completely in the baking dish on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper to lift the bars out of the pan, then cut them into 16 squares.
Serve and enjoy your gluten-free chocolate fudge bars, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
