Who doesn't like brownies? I know I do. This is a really unique recipe I have been working on over the weekend and I am sure I have it perfected. These brownies are super moist and tasty. The best part is they are gluten free, low glycemic, low carb, diabetic safe and low sugar. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. Bon appétit!
