Gluten and Dairy-Free Brownies

Okay, so I have done my share of experimenting with making my own brownies, instead of using a package (which is more expensive and usually less healthy).  Finally, these turned out sooooooo gooey and yummy!

¼ cup coconut oil, melted
½ cup granulated sugar healthier alternative (I used coconut palm brown sugar)
1/3 cup pure maple syrup (agave or raw honey would work too)
2 tsp vanilla extract

1 egg (the original called for 2 to make it more cakelike)
½ cup gluten-free all-purpose flour mix (I used Pamela's)
1/3 cup cocoa powder
½ tsp sea salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional, also nuts)

Add ingredients in the order shown and mix well.  Pour batter into an 8 x 8 square or a 8inch round greased (with coconut oil) pan and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.  

*They were very gooey (due to the chocolate chips) so you might need a fork to eat-my husband froze them and ate that way!
