Quick, Simple, Delicious Brownie Crumbly Mess.

(YES- I do keep the knife in the pan and just eat them out of it.. )

The title says it. I can't decide how I feel about this recipe. It is vegan, therefore there are no eggs involved. BUT- there is also nothing added as a binder..

I did make this at 12:30 a.m when my sweet tooth was overwhelming and it definitely satisfied the taste buds. They really are delicious-just a bit crumbly. REALLY good in a bowl with rice milk poured over top or even ice cream!

The weren't dry either. Like a lot of vegan desserts. They were very most and would be even better with a bag of chocolate chips thrown in! MM MMmm Mmmmm.

Ingredients


2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

2 cups white sugar

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup water

1 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

SO easy!

Because this is a basic brownie recipe, one would easily add egg replacer. I usually use Ener-G Egg Replacer, which I believe is made with potato starch. I have never tried flax, but I hear it works well.
