Ingredients
Scale
Truffles
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 8 oz. dark chocolate, chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 pinch salt
Brownies
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 4 oz. dark chocolate, chopped
- 1/4 cup cacoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3/4 cup gluten free flour blend
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- To make the truffles, heat the cream up over low heat in a small saucepan. Place the chopped chocolate, butter and salt in a medium mixing bowl. When the cream starts to steam and you see small bubbles, pour the cream over the chocolate and let sit 5 minutes.
- Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, mix together the chocolate and cream mixture until completely combine. Place the bowl in your refrigerator until the chocolate is solid about 2-4 hours.
- When the truffles are hard, preheat your oven to 300F.
- Heat the coconut oil and dark chocolate up in a microwave or over the stove top (over very low heat), until everything is melted and combine. Stir in the cacoa powder and vanilla extract. Let sit until room temperature (about 10 minutes).
- Mix in the eggs and brown sugar. Fold in the flour, salt and chocolate chips.
- Spray or butter your cast iron pan(s), liberally. Add the batter into the pan and spread out so that it is even.
- Using a teaspoon cookie/ice cream scoop, spoon the truffle mixture into small rounds. Place the rounds in the brownies pans (use as much as you want).
- Bake the brownies for 14-30 minutes, depending on the size of your pan. Remove from the oven a few minutes before it is completely set and baked (as it will continue to bake when it’s out of the oven). Let sit for a few minutes. Scoop out with a spoon and serve alone or with ice cream.
Notes
Make sure you make the truffles first – in the morning, maybe. Do not freeze the truffle mixture. Refrigerator works best.
If using a microwave to melt the oil and chocolate together, use 20 second increments and stir after each one, until it is fully melted and combine.
