It's about time I feature a gluten free creation, don't you think? My daughter has been gluten free for a few years now and we have tried a few good and not so good recipes. Most of the time I read a gluten free recipe, I see a lot of stuff I don't recognize or have on hand, does this happen to you? Never Fear, Krusteaz Here!
Recently I attended the IFBC (International Food Bloggers Conference - don't feel bad, I had to Google it) in Seattle. The first night of the conference, there was a gift suite, which was a room full of wonderful products for each attendee to take home. Yea, it was pretty sweet. As soon as I spotted the Krusteaz Gluten Free Brownie mix, it was added to my bag full of swag!
Serious chocolate, like thick fudgy chocolate. Because these brownies were so good and deserved to be served in style, I decided to dress them up for Halloween. After the brownies have completely cooled, cut them into eight bars and remove from pan.
Here's a list of other Krusteaz products - all of which I cannot wait to try, along with a little snippet about the company - don't you love it?
Mummy Brownies
As you can see, the box got a little worn during the trip home. But no worries, after I mixed it up according to directions, it was DELICIOUS! All you need to add is water, oil and an egg. (I added a cornstarch, using their high altitude directions. And I must say, these brownies turned out so good, I might start adding cornstarch to everything! If you don't live at a high altitude, I recommend you move to Colorado and use the high altitude directions.)
The brownies alone, were so easy to make, I had plenty of time to decorate them like mummies. Add royal icing eyes to each bar. Fill a decorating bag with white buttercream frosting and a straight edge tip. Pipe white frosting back and forth across the brownie until your brownie is mummified.

ReplyDeleteDarn, I wish they had more conferences and events here for bloggers. I'm giggling that it was an 'international' event, but held in the US. I wish I had tons of £'s so I could just hop on a plane to go to these conferences, and of course finally meet blogging friends such as you. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the mummies. There cute (as cute as mummies can be). And made with gluten free brownie mix sounds perfect for those that can't eat gluten.
