Naughty Vegan Brownies
We’ve been making boxed brownies for various family events and found that using the recommended additional ingredients (or its substitute) equals very oily brownies. Yes, we cheat and use the mix. Homemade brownie recipes don’t include hydrogenated oil – which I’m certain takes all the credit for the paper thin, flaky top I love! (Hence, the ‘naughty’ name.)
I thought I’d share what we found works well and save you the trouble of wasted time and brownies. You should note that we prefer chewy brownies, not cake-like, so you may need to alter these further to suit your taste.
