At last! A recipe for vegan chocolate brownies that actually works! And proper sticky rich gooey ones too. This recipe has been 2 years in the finding and along the way there have been a lot of charred chocolate casualties. But this one is a keeper and totally idiot proof so get your chocolatey chops around this…
