It's difficult to accept the diagnosis of a lifelong illness.
One which makes you feel strange and abnormal, causes you to feel paranoid when eating anywhere except home, and makes your life so different..
When I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease, I began baking a lot more. One recipe which was and is our family's (and friend's) favorite is the brownie recipe below and lucky for me (and you), it tastes exactly the same gluten free as before!
Delicious Gluten Free Chocolate Brownie
200g Butter, softened
1 and a half cups Sugar
1 cup Cocoa
3 Eggs
Half cup Gluten free Flour
150g roughly chopped Chocolate
1. Preheat oven to 150 degrees.
2. Using an electric mixer, beat butter, sugar and cocoa for 4-5 mins-until creamy.
3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each one.
4. Stir in flour and chocolate.
5. Transfer the mixture into a greased 20cm square baking tin
6. Bake at 150 for 45 mins (poss 50 mins), or until the surface of the brownie appears cracked. The centre should appear almost uncooked.
7. Cool in the tin.
Beware: Its a VERY messy recipe- worth it, but messy!!!
