Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies + Saltbush Caramel
Glen Hagger
Using the GH Produce Vegan Chocolate Cup Cake Mix, we have created the drool worthy, fudgy and deliciously indulgent, Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownie. We have created this one so you can enjoy a "guilty" pleasure the right way. Vegan, Gluten Free, Refined Sugar Free, Dairy Free and Paleo. Basically anyone can enjoy this brownie whether you are health conscious, vegan or have certain intolerances!
The addition of a shot of Coffee Fusion coffee deepens the rich brownie flavour, whilst a sprinkle of saltbush adds a little salty hint that complements the chocolate and peanut butter extremely well. Using the Cupcake Mix and only a few pantry staple ingredients, you will have this rich, fudgy brownie whipped up in no time at all! Impress your friends and family with something little naughty but very nice!
Enjoy.
