Dark Chocolate Brownies

Dark Chocolate Brownies are the ultimate comfort bake — deeply chocolatey, rich, and irresistibly fudgy. This version leans into bold cocoa flavour, using dark chocolate and cacao powder to create a brownie that feels indulgent without being overly sweet. The result is a perfectly balanced treat with a soft, moist interior and an intense chocolate finish that satisfies serious chocolate cravings.

These brownies are ideal for everything from afternoon treats and lunchbox bakes to dessert with a cup of coffee. Almond milk keeps the batter light, while coconut sugar adds a gentle caramel-like sweetness that complements the bitterness of dark chocolate beautifully. Simple ingredients come together here to create a bake that feels classic, comforting, and deeply satisfying — proof that plant-based baking can be just as rich and indulgent as traditional versions.

Ingredient Benefits

Dark Chocolate

Dark chocolate provides deep, intense flavour and richness. It contains antioxidants such as flavonoids, which support heart health and help combat oxidative stress.

Gluten Free Self-Raising Flour

Gluten free self-raising flour creates structure and lift while keeping the brownies soft and tender. It allows for a satisfying bake without compromising texture.

Cacao Powder

Cacao powder enhances the chocolate flavour while adding depth and richness. It’s naturally high in antioxidants and contributes to that intense cocoa profile.

Coconut Sugar

Coconut sugar adds sweetness with subtle caramel notes. It has a lower glycaemic impact than refined sugar and contains trace minerals.

Almond Milk

Almond milk provides moisture and lightness to the batter without dairy. It keeps the brownies tender while allowing the chocolate flavour to shine.
