Gluten Free Brownies

I've been wanting to post this recipe since April when I went to Utah for BYU Women's Conference.  (Better late than never!)  My daughter-in-law made these brownies for everyone.  (Her son is suppose to be on a gluten free diet.)  Well, these brownies were absolutely delicious!  She made a homemade chocolate icing to put on the top.  Ummm, so moist and choco-licious!  But you really don't need the icing.  These brownies definitely can stand on their own.

Gluten Free Brownies

1 (16 oz) jar of creamy roasted almond butter
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups agave nectar or pure maple syrup
1 Tablespoon vanilla
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. 
 
Using a mixer, blend almond butter in a large bowl until smooth.  Add eggs, agave or maple syrup, and vanilla.  Blend in cocoa powder, salt and baking soda.  Then fold in chocolate chips.  Pour batter into a greased 9 x 13 glass dish.  Bake for 35 - 40 minutes.
