Eggless Dark Chocolate Nutty Brownies

It has been ages since I baked brownies… and it has been quite some time since the Baking Eggless challenge. Gayathri had decided to give a little break to the challenge last September to give it the spark that was much needed. Even though she started last month with this Milk Tart, I stayed away due to me wanting to cut down on my baking sweet stuff – not that it has come to a half, but I am just trying to control it! This month, she had suggested these Dark Chocolate Nutty Brownies and I just couldn’t resist making them. Just like I mentioned while starting this post, the last brownies I baked were these ones and then I don’t know why I never made brownies. Somehow, I have been baking cakes and brownies just seemed to slip off my mind.

After dillydallying with it for quite some time, I finally decided to make them. The challenge was definitely replacing 3 eggs but then Alhamdulillah, I was able to do it successfully. I won’t call it fudgy but it was really crumbly and melt in the mouth! I totally loved the texture and the feel of the brownie that it was difficult to stop with just one piece. This one was my first midnight baking experience – the kids were fast asleep and HD was watching some boring movie on TV, as he always does when he comes down home. I was unable to sleep as I had already taken 3 hours sleep due to my low health at that time. That was when this brownie that I had pinned up my fridge board stared at me and I made it immediately. At 12:30 am, I was busy melting the chocolate and butter, preparing my pan, preheating my oven and the rest is history! Hehe… Off to the way I made it…

One last picture to tempt you… 🙂
