Cosmic Brownies
These Cosmic Brownies are like your favorite childhood treat! They feature rich, fudgy brownies with decadent chocolate frosting and rainbow sprinkles. They are the perfect homemade twist on a classic dessert!
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch square pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the sugar, light brown sugar, melted butter, and cocoa powder. Stir vigorously for 2 minutes.
Then, add in the vanilla, eggs, and egg yolk. Stir to combine.
Add in the gluten free flour and tapioca flour. Stir until a slightly thick brownie batter forms.
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Smooth into an even layer.
Bake for 24 to 27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
Once the brownies have fully cooled, top with chocolate frosting and sprinkles. Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until the frosting has firmed up and set.
Finally, slice and serve!
Stir the melted butter mixture for 2 minutes. This is key in achieving the shiny top on the brownies.
Use 2 whole eggs and an additional 1 egg yolk.
If you are not gluten free, feel free to use regular all purpose flour.
If needed, replace tapioca flour with cornstarch.
The brownies are done baking when a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
The brownies must cool fully before topping with frosting.
Place the frosted brownies back in the fridge to allow the frosting to thicken.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days at room temperature.
Store in the fridge for up to one week.
