Oh hey, how are ya? Was anyone else out there sad when Martha Stewart’s Everyday Food magazine was canceled? Hands? Anyone? Aww, man. I loved that magazine. And, yes, I was so dang sad to get that little card in the mail saying my subscription would be finished out with MS’s Everyday Living magazine. Nothing against that magazine, I just really liked her Everyday Food magazine. (Hey can I say “everyday” or “magazine” more in one paragraph? Yeah, I’m good like that.)
In fact I have a whole shelf (a large shelf, I might add) in my bedroom devoted to the past 8 years of this make-me-so-happy-getting-it-in-the-mail subscription I owned. That’s like my whole married life, peeps! It was just such a fun little magazine. It was so cute, almost pocket-sized, ok, you needed some big pockets to tote it around in…we’ll say purse-sized instead 🙂 I just loved it so. When I go thrifting I will specifically look for old editions I might now have to add to my collection, is that weird?
On another weird note, did you know that a few years back I asked my husband for a Sirius Radio subscription for Christmas? Yup. And not for all the cool music channels it had…nope. It was for the Martha Stewart Channel..now is THAT weird? I just love Martha! Annnnd, she even had an Everyday Food hour (or was it two hours?) where the editor would talk the talk about recipes, gardening, tips and tricks, and kitchen stuff, you know…Maggie salivating at it’s best! See I told you I really loved this now defunct magazine! I remember running errands with Noah and Penny and listening to it in my car to my hearts content….good times.
On yet another note, yep it just took 3 to get to my point. I found this here recipe for Gluten-Free Fudgy Brownies from that perfectly, perfect, wish-it-were-still-around magazine. Except in typical Maggie fashion I tweaked it just a bit to suit my likings 🙂 I hope you love it. Even if you aren’t gluten-free you should enjoy it’s fudginess…there is really nothing like a fudgy brownie!

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
10 oz dark chocolate
3/4 cup sugar

Ingredients! Go get ’em!
Mix together the dry ingredients…cocoa powder, cornstarch, and cinnamon and set a side.
Melt the dark chocolate and butter in the microwave next…in 30 second increments….until it’s nice and smooth. Then add in the vanilla and sugar, mix well. Then add in the eggs, one at a time. Then add in the cornstarch mixture. Finally mix it all until it’s well combined.
Pour it into a greased 8×8 inch pan and bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
Let it cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes, then turn the pan out, ever so carefully, onto the wire rack to finish cooling. You have to wait otherwise it’s going to be a brownie massacre when you cut into these puppies…trust me….they are FUDGY.
See, you wait and you get lovely little squares of joy. Gluten-free joy.
What’s that? A whole stack of gluten-free joy? Why, thankyouverymuch!
Enjoy!
And, oh hey! Thanks for stopping by today!
XOXO,
Mmmmh, looks delicious! Sorry to hear that the magazine won’t be available anymore… Just be happy you don’t live in Germany, then you couldn’t have gotten it first place 😉 Just kidding…
Enjoy the Brownies and have a lovely day!

Thank you! 🙂
I made these but I used coconut oil instead of butter…. that is the only thing I changed. they seemed sponge like not cake like . Would that make a difference ?
Hmm…I have never replaced the butter so I’m not sure! If you make it the way stated they come our very fudgy!!
