Here is my first recipe!

Chocolate !!!!!

I must be one of the rare few who love to cook with chocolate more than I love to eat it.
This is a vegan recipe. No, I am not vegan, but I like different diets. Since I know vegetarians, vegans and gluten free people, there will be something for everyone.
Forget the butter and eggs for a vegan fudgy brownie. The results are very very very nice!

This brownie was prepared especially for "Shannon" my English teacher that I saw four times a week for six months. 
Thank you for your classes, which were  interesting and constructive, but especially for one of your best qualities (which I don't have... )--your patience!
Six months where I have improved thanks to you: THANK YOU! 



VEGAN FUDGY BROWNIES

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup apple sauce ( homemade it's better)
  • 5 oz squares baking dark chocolate ( unsweetened) cut in big chunks
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1/3 cup powder cacao unsweetened
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup pecan pieces
  • a pinch of salt
METHOD
       
      1 Preheat the over to 325° F. Line the bottom and the sides of an 8 inch square baking pan with waxpaper.
      2 Combine the apple sauce, sugar and vanilla extract. In the other bowl mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, powder cacao and a pinch of salt.
      3 Blend this preparation with the apple sauce. Add the chocolate chunks and pecans. Mix everything. Spread the batter evenly in the lined pan.
      4 Bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out just slightly moist with batter 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool for at least 20 min. Cut into 10-15 squares.
      Enjoy it warm or room temperature.   



Delicious, I do it again .
