Chocolate Chip Brownies with Coconut Shavings

 I baked a pan of brownies yesterday.  My husband has been craving for it for days but my gluten-free goodies have just arrived the other day.  So here is the recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 pack Glutino gluten free pantry double chocolate brownie mix
• 2 eggs  
• 5 tbsp melted butter
• 1 cup sweetened coconut shavings, divided into 3/4 for the  mixture and 1/4 cup for the toppings

 Preparation:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray 8x8 inch pan with vegetable oil. I use this pan  so the brownie will be thin.
• In a large bowl, beat eggs for 3-2 minutes.  Gradually add dry mix.  Beat to moisten.
• Add butter and stir until combined.
• Fold the 3/4 cup coconut shavings and lightly mix.
• Pour in prepared pan and sprinkle the  remaining 1/4 cup of coconut shaving on top of the mixture.
• Then bake for 25 minutes.  
• Put the  baked brownies in the freezer for 5-8 minutes  for easy cutting.

When my kids arrived from school, they immediately  smelled the goodness of the brownies upon entering the door and immediately went in the kitchen.  Our daughter grabbed one slice right away to satisfy her sweet  cravings.  I seldom bake  sweets so it is always a treat for them when I do once in a while.

This month's Glutino box includes lemon-flavored wafer bites, pretzel with sesame seeds, decadent chocolate cake mix, old fashioned yellow cake mix, corn bread mix. and two flavored frosted toaster pastry.   My daughter is  planning to bake  one of the cake mixes this weekend.  So far, the lemon wafers  is gone and the  sesame pretzel rings is  by far my favorite snack when blogging.    A friend of mine  told me that  gluten-free  products are somewhat yucky.  I told her that  it depends on the brand that she  would buy.  I recommended  Glutino  to her since her son is gluten intolerant.
