Servings: persons

1-1/2 Tablespoon Ground Flax Seed
5 Tablespoons Water
1 Tablespoon Instant Espresso Powder
1/4 cups Boiling Water
1/4 cups Bittersweet Chocolate Chips
6 Tablespoons Earth Balance Buttery Spread, Melted
1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/2 cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1 cup All-purpose Flour
1 cup Cane Sugar
1/2 cups Unsweetened Dark Chocolate Cocoa Powder
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1/3 cups Chocolate Chips

1
Preheat oven to 350 F.
2
In a small bowl, combine the flax seed together with 5 tablespoons of tap water. Set aside.
3
In a large glass work bowl, combine the instant espresso powder and boiling water and stir together until dissolved. Then add the chocolate chips and Earth Balance, and stir until melted. To fully melt all the chocolate chips, you may need to place the bowl in the microwave in 10 second intervals, stirring after each interval.
4
When the mixture has melted and cooled slightly, add in the canola oil, vanilla extract and ground flax mixture.
5
Add in the remaining ingredients and stir until just combined.
6
Pour mixture into a lightly greased 8 x 8 inch baking dish and bake for 12-15 minutes, being sure not to over-bake! The middle should still be slightly gooey.
7
Cool in the pan on a cooling rack for at least 30 minutes, then slice and eat!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
