Who knew that the best brownies in the world would.….
-
come from a box.
-
take 5 minutes and zero brain power.
-
be gluten free.
-
be made with ingredients with a one-stop shop from Trader Joe’s for under ten bucks!?!
These are “doctored up” because I add an extra 6-7 doses of chocolate plus a sprinkling of sea salt on the top.
I personally like to cut them up into small brownie bites and stick them in the freezer. Expect them to disappear.

- Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Brownie Mix
- 1 egg
- 1 stick of butter
- ¼ cup water
- ½ cup of Trader Joe’s cocoa powder
- 3oz Valharona or Trader Joe’s 70% Dark Chocolate Bar
- Coconut Oil or Butter (for greasing the pan)
- Sea salt (about 1 1/2 teaspoons)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8×8 pan (or one of a similar size) with coconut oil or butter.
- Combine the brownie mix, cocoa powder, water and egg together in a large mixing bowl.
- Melt the dark chocolate and butter together over the stovetop and then let cool just a bit.
- Add the butter and chocolate mixture to the brownie mixture and mix together until well combined. (It will look more like a dough than a batter).
- Spread the brownie mixture evenly in the pan.
- Bake for 30 minutes. Allow to cool. Sprinkle sea salt on top. Cut into small squares and stick in freezer if you like.
