Welcome to Day #2 of Chocolate and Brownie Theme Week. 

Some of the chocolate brownie items featured this week will be homemade, with a few made with single origin chocolate. Others, like today's chocolate treat, will be purchased off-the-shelf from various retail locations.

Today's chocolate brownie-inspired "Brownie Crisp" offering was from Trader Joe's (Monrovia, CA).

Each square smelled and tasted like the well-done top layer harvested from a baked chocolate brownie...but these were more uniformly thin and crunchy, like a brownie cookie -- exactly as advertised. 

You may not even notice that these crispy, chocolate chip/chunk adorned chocolate squares are also vegan and gluten free (made with a gluten-free flour blend, see Ingredients list below).

Ingredients: "Organic cane sugar, flour blend (oat, garbanzo, sorghum, tapioca and potato starch, fava), organic soymilk (water, soybeans, tricalcium phosphate, potassium citrate, carageenan, magnesium chloride, vitamin E, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin D2, vitamin B2, vitamin B12), cocoa, chocolate chips and chunks (unsweetened chocolate, dextrose, cocoa butter, soy lecithin), margarine (palm oil, mono- and diglycerides, sunflower lecithin, citric acid, beta carotene), leavening (calcium lactate, calcium carbonate, cream of tartar), cellulose gum, modified cellulose, natural flavors, baking soda, sea salt, xanthan gum."

Allergen-related information: Vegan, gluten free. Contains soy.
