    Here Comes Trouble Brownies (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    This recipe comes to us from Valerie Wells.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    (1) Melt 1 stick of butter, 2 squares of unsweetened chocolate plus 1 tablespoon coconut oil or other cooking oil in an 8 square baking pan (I put them in the oven for 4 or 5 five minutes while it preheats and I assemble the other ingredients. Be careful not to over heat it and burn the chocolate).

    (2) Add to pan:
    1 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
    ¼ cup gluten-free flour (half rice flour/half corn starch)
    ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum (optional)
    2 tablespoons Jell-O Instant pudding mix (I used vanilla flavor)
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla

    (3) Stir until smooth. Bake 27 to 30 minutes at 350F. Cool before frosting.

    Frosting: Gently soften ½ bag semi-sweet chocolate chips plus 2 tablespoons butter in the top of a double boiler (or a metal or glass mixing bowl set over boiling water). When thoroughly melted, stir in a few tablespoons of powdered confectioners sugar until smooth. Spread over brownies and sprinkle with chopped nuts while still warm.

    Scrumptious! I made these for a party after remembering that the son had just been diagnosed and the other dessert I made was not gluten-free. Everyone loved these and have asked for them again!

    Wow! These brownies are the BOMB!! I made these for someone's birthday in my office and the only complaint I have is that it didn't make enough. I ended up having to make another pan (13" x 9") of regular brownies to go along with this recipe which only made an 8" x 8" square pan. But, then we got to do the taste test challenge. These were hands down, WAY better the the full-gluten version. They were so moist and a great consistency. Thanks so much for the recipe. This is now a staple! Next time, I'll just double it to make the full pan.

    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Devil's Food Brownies (Gluten-Free)
    I was never a big cake fan, in fact for my birthday I always asked for pie or torte rather than cake. However, brownies are another story. I love eating brownies when they are warm and gooey, right out of the oven. Unfortunately, I haven't had homemade brownies since going, gluten, egg, dairy and refined sugar free. These brownies are gluten-free, and grain-free as well as egg, refined sugar and dairy free. There is even an option to substitute chocolate with carob. Finally, a brownie recipe that I can actually eat!

    One day, I had a couple of packages of gluten-free brownie mix that needed to be used. I also had a good amount of Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur, and was feeling a bit adventurous. I found a recipe at All Recipes.com for something called Bailey's Irish Cream Brownies. I used my gluten-free mix, and the result was this little bit of gluten-free Irish brownie joy.
    Ingredients:
    2 (20.5 ounce) packages Open Original Shared Link 1 cup Irish gluten-free cream liqueur (such as Carolans) ¼ cup vegetable oil 2 eggs
    Frosting Ingredients:
    1 cup unsalted butter, softened 5 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur 4 cups powdered sugar Directions:
    Heat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

      Working in a kitchen with gluten?

      Hi yes! I was diagnosed 10 years ago through a biopsy. I’ve been gluten free ever since but no one I’m around is gluten free. I sometimes wore a surgical mask in the kitchen. but I believe particles were still getting through. I’ll definitely look into n95 instead. thanks for the reply.

      Skinesa

      Ya I used to react to iodine, but it doesn't bother me anymore after strict adherence to a gluten-free diet for many years now. I am happy to report that for the first time ever in my life, a probiotic formula is not making me break out, but actually seems to be helping. The strains in this formula have been specifically tested to help with skin issues. It...

      Feeling ill

      @Whyz, I take a combination of Thiamin (Benfotiamin), B12 Cobalamine and Pyridoxine B6 for my pain and headaches. Really works well without hurting the digestive tract. Riboflavin B2 also helps with migraines. Most newly diagnosed people have vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Check with your doctor and nutritionist. If you follow the updated...

      Advantages vs. Disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis

      I don't believe that existing life insurance policies require such notifications--health checks are typically done before such policies are obtained. I believe it would primarily affect any new policy you get, and perhaps any policy renewal.

      Feeling ill

      You could go gluten-free now, and then start eating lots of gluten for at least 2 weeks before your endoscopy--just be sure to tell your doctor about this beforehand. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it is further evidence of celiac disease and/or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity...
