Double Chocolate Fudge Brownies

Trying to stay occupied on these days of quarantine? Test out your baking skills with these super chocolatey vegan brownies. Everyone has got to have a cheat day every once in a while and these brownies are the perfect way to help your sweet tooth!

I use Shoprite semi-sweet chocolate chips in this recipe which are vegan and tasty. Melting these chocolate chips into this recipe adds fudginess to your brownies that will leave you wanting more.

Let the brownies cool before cutting into them or they will break apart. I also added melted peanut butter to the top for preference, it is optional.
