Rich Fudgy Brownies
Rich! Fudgy! And…no flour required. Yes, gluten free friends may rejoice too since these are naturally gluten free. The lack of flour lends itself to the perfectly moist and fudgy texture you will find in these beauties! These rich fudgy brownies will wow even the most serious chocolate lovers! I like to chill my brownies prior to cutting. Then use a large, hot knife to make perfect cuts. These hold up really well in a lunchbox. To serve up on a platter, sprinkle heavily with powdered sugar.

I was told that Ghirardelli isn’t GF of a site that’s rep. From there said this. Have they changed recently?

I found this for you: Ghirardelli currently offers one product which contains a gluten ingredient: Our Milk Hazelnut Crisp Squares, containing barley malt as an ingredient. As a result, the line on which our chocolate bars and Squares are produced, share a common line with barley gluten.
“The chocolate chips (60% Bittersweet, Semi-Sweet, and Milk Chocolate) line and powder line (hot chocolates and baking cocoas) will remain free of gluten ingredients.
