These plant-based crinkle top brownies are so easy to make, along with being super-moist, gooey and fudgy and they have just right right balance of chocolate throughout
To make them extra healthy, we used unsweetened applesauce for the egg replacement and 100% unsweetened cocoa for richness to give it that intense chocolate flavor you’re looking for in brownies.

About The Chocolate To Use
Ghirardelli’s Unsweetened Cocoa is awesome and recommended, but Hershey’s Special Dark Baking Cocoa would also be good or any good quality unsweetened cocoa you may have on hand.
You don’t even need chocolate chips for extra chocolate flavor, unless you want to add them, but seriously, you don’t need them. Of, course, there’s always espresso powder, if you’re a chocolate coffee brownie person!
Speaking of brownie love, we do like to brag on these Ultimate Fudge Frosted Brownies and these Awesome Vegan Black Forest Brownies as well! Check them out!

I’ve made a lot of vegan brownies experimenting over the last few months and have found some are way too sugary, too dry and crumbly or you have to add chocolate chips or chunks for a burst of chocolate. Not so with these! Wait until you try them! Chocolate delish!
