Krusteaz’s Double Chocolate Gluten-Free Brownie mix is an absolute favorite of mine, first discovered at Costco many moons ago. It’s delicious and even lovers of gluten will love them.
This mix was the perfect base for a patriot, 4th of July dessert with fresh berries and a cream cheese base. This recipe can easily be cut in half and baked in a round or square pan.
The dessert is best served the day it is made but leftovers brownies can be good for 1-2 days.
