- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Instructions:

- Add Chocolate Chips:
- Fold in the chocolate chips evenly into the batter. For an extra chocolatey experience, reserve a few chips to sprinkle on top before baking.
- Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are firm and the center is set but still slightly soft.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack to room temperature for easy cutting.
- Slice into squares and enjoy as is, or top with your favorite dairy-free ice cream or garnish as suggested.
