Instructions:

1. Prepare Chocolate Mixture:
In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and dark chocolate together. You can do this using a microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Alternatively, melt them over a double boiler. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. Mix Eggs and Vanilla:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are lightly frothy. Add the vanilla extract and stir until combined.
3. Combine Ingredients:
Slowly add the cooled chocolate and butter mixture to the eggs, stirring constantly to incorporate.
4. Add Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the finely ground almonds, dry cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold these dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined.
5. Pour Batter:
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
6. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. This will ensure a fudgy texture.
7. Cool and Serve:
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut them into 12 squares. Serve and enjoy your delicious gluten-free brownies!

Now that you have your delicious gluten-free brownies ready, all that's left to do is enjoy them with family and friends. Perfect for any occasion, these brownies offer the same rich flavor and gooey texture you love, without the gluten. Happy baking!
