FUDGY BOI!

when breezy asked for a gluten-free chocolate brownie,
and specified that she wanted it the way i made it the first time....
well,
that meant a lot.
y'know?
because i mess with recipes, and i amend and edit them often-
but she has a preference, so that's the way i do it, now.
uh-huh.
y'gotta make it the way they like it, neighbors, or else, what the eff are you even bothering for?
f'real.
don't make the sh!t that they hate,
unless you're lookin' to feel badly about the response you get.
i'm not about that life, buddy.
not even once, and not even a little baby bit.
so, without a recipe, but with my creative recall on high alert,
i recreated the fudgiest, moistest, softest, richest, most righteous brownie
to ever exist without wheat inside it's essence.
that's no joke.
check the teleport:

FUUUUUUUUUDGGGGGGGGGE!!
yeah!
this jaun is thiccccc, and it's hella rich,
and it's F*ing expert as heck, too.
i used a 10" pan to bake it in, lined with parchment,
because that gluten-free mud it's composed of is supersticky and wants to ruin itself.
fancy paper cures that, so fancy paper gets used for that.
word up.
-
is that chocolate ganache drizzle AND chocolate frosting on top?
hell yes it is-
too much is the right amount.
that's the way it has to be.
overdone and activated with esxxxcess and exxxtras or else 'no thanks, skanks'.
the drizz' is just tempered dark chocolate with s'milk and powdered sugar and vanilla-
a splash of everything on low heat, and a pastry bag with a missin' tip and blah blah blah.
the frosting is easy, too-
2 cups of powdered sugar, 6 T vegan butter; 1 tsp vanilla, a tiny pinch of salt,
3 T cocoa, and 1/4 up s'milk, whisked on high speed in a stand-up mixer.......
it's all what i always do, because those moves always deliver the dopeness, duder.
yeah.
but, the actual brownie?
that's what you need, nerds.

GF CHOCOLATE FUDGE BROWNIE!!
-
preheat your oven to 350℉
-
line a pan of your choice with parchment
-
in a small sauce pot, melt 1 stick vegan butter with 1 cup non-dairy milk,
and 2 tsp vanilla, on low heat, until it's all melty and nice.
-
in a medium metal mixin' bowl, combine:
1 cup brown sugar;
1/4 cup sugar;
1/2 tsp salt;
1 cup bob's ap gf baking blend flour;
1 cup mama's almond flour blend;
3 T tapioca starch;
1/4 cup chick pea flour;
1/4 cup cocoa;
1/2 cup vanilla soy yogurt;
1 tsp baking powder;
1 tsp baking soda.
add the melty liquid to the mushy dry stuff,
and stir enough to make a wet, sloppy batter-
spread it into your parchment'd pan,
and bake the whole thing for 25-30 minutes-
it should still feel soft.
if it gets cakey, that's okay, but it's NOT the way breezy likes it.
maybe you do, though?
bake it longer if that's the case.
i dunno how you wanna live your life, kid, so do what feels right.
ANYway,
it's one heck of a treat, and i have eaten a whole lot of it.
interestingly, i don't think she had even a single wedge of this masterpiece.
isn't that the way it goes though, bros?
we do what we think is right, and it goes largely unnoticed.
alas, i'm over here stuffing it in MY face, so all is not lost, boss.
yeah.

the last weekend of 2018 is here.
and it's snowing.
that means that tomorrow is gonna be a sh!t-salad sandwich
stacked with skiers and second-homo'wners who'll be clogging up all
the thoroughfares and restaurants with their privilege and prerogatives.
neat.
i can't wait.
i guess that means that today is the day.
and it's friday, which is even better-
i've got long-time friends coming up top get their kids tattooed-
that's wild, btw.
when the little dudes you remember are now big dudes in the tattoo chair?
crazy, right?
i KNOW.
so, it's a snow day, and anything can happen-
as for me, whatever comes at me today is gonna be exxxactly what was supposed to,
so i guess i gotta take the ride regardless of where it leads.
anything, something, everything- it's ALL really happening;
never quiet, never soft.....
