These red velvet brownies are the perfect Easter recipe treat. Oozing with fudge and red velvet, they are vegan and super delicious. This is a quick recipe that you can jazz up by decorating however you like!
My red velvet brownies are the perfect Easter recipe treat. My daughter requested I make the best brownies ever, so I had to step up my game. I wanted to do something different and we love red velvet in my family. What I created are super fudge brownies. These vegan brownies are easy to make like most all brownies, but they are extra fudgey and delicious!
I adapted my brownies recipe from this vegan recipe here, which provided a solid starting point. My favorite part about these red velvet brownies is how easy you can customize them. Brownies are really simple, so adding some flare and personal style goes a long way.
One trick that I find improves my brownies is that I always melt my vegan butter and chocolate chips on the stove top. Then I mix in the sugar that way. But honestly, if you want to use the microwave for your butter, you totally can! Just know that I find there’s a difference. You can totally jazz up these brownies too. I had some leftover chocolate from making chocolate covered strawberries, so I drizzled melted chocolate on top and then added red sprinkles. Add any sort of sprinkles or candies like Easter Eggs and let your kids help!
