Independence Day Brownies

Independence Day brownies! These soft and chewy brownies are made just a bit more festive for the 4th of July with these red, white, and blue sprinkles. I know it’s Canada Day – and I posted about those brownies on Wednesday. Well, these are the same, with a punch of blue. Okay, let’s get baking!

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup of salted butter
  • 1 1/4 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup of white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons of vanilla
  • 1 cup of cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons of gluten free flour
  • 1/2 cup of chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup of red, white, and blue sprinkles

Instructions

  • Get a sauce pan ready and melt the butter.
  • Then, add in the sugars and stir with a whisk or a wooden spoon. Add in the chocolate chips and let them melt.
  • Take off the heat for a bit. Add in the eggs once the batter has cooled, you don’t want to cook the eggs.
  • Next, add in the vanilla, the cocoa powder, and then the gluten free flour. Then, back on for a bit of heat and melt it all together a bit more.
  • Pour the brownie mixture into an 8×8 pan lined with parchment paper. The parchment paper makes for easy cleanup and the 8×8 pan makes for taller brownies!
  • Once the batter is in the pan, top with all the red, white, and blue sprinkles you can find. Push them in a bit, or lift the pan a few inches off the counter and drop it to settle the sprinkles.
  • Once the sprinkles are all in place, bake at 350 degrees for 28-35 minutes. You want the brownies to be chewy and moist.
  • Let the brownies cool for a bit – about 30-40 minutes before you cut them. Then eat up! We store them in the freezer and they’re so good cold.
