The Candy Bar That Hooked Me!

Recently, I succumbed to temptation and purchased one of the best coffee and chocolate flavored candy bars I have ever had. As if Starbucks didn't already have me hooked on their coffee, I am now an official addict of their Mocha Dark Chocolate Candy Bar. Recently I experimented with a brownie recipe from www.glutenfreegirl.blogspot.com and this candy bar. What follows if a recipe that is sure to become a favorite among gluten eaters and avoiders alike!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

1 stick of butter
4 ozs of Starbucks Mocha Dark Chocolate Candy Bar
3/4 cup of gluten free flour mixture
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup sugar

Step 1

Break the chocolate into small pieces. Place into a microwave-safe bowl with the butter. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between each interval, until chocolate is melted. This step generally takes 1 minute. Be careful not to overcook the chocolate.
Step 2

In a seperate bowl, mix together the flour and sugar until blended. Add eggs, vanilla, and salt.
Step 3

Blend the mixtures together well.

Combine the flour mixture with the chocolate mixture. Stir until well mixed.
Step 4

Pour mixture into a greased 8x8 square pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.
Step 5

Place in sink filled with ice water to cool.

Remove from oven and immediately place in a ice water. This will stop the cooking process and give you fudgy brownies with a flaky top crust.
Step 6

Cool and serve or refrigerate overnight. Enjoy!

Tips & Warnings

I use Domata Living Flour for all my gluten-free baked goods.
Fill sink with an inch or two of cold water. Add ice cubes. Place pan in sink to cool. Be careful not to splash water onto the brownies.
I use a metal pan for the recipe. I do not know if a glass or stone pan would shatter when placed in cold water. I am not brave enough to find out!!!
