EGGLESS CHOCOLATE BROWNIE- CAKEY AND MOIST

Baking the perfect eggless chocolate brownie can be the easiest and the most difficult thing to do. Confused ? Well thats simply because a good brownie is different for different people ! It can be  fudgy, chewy,soft, crispy, cakey and a myriad of other textures in between. One may prefer it with chocolate chips or topped with various nuts or with a hint of coffee,

the list of combinations can go on and on.
Traditionally brownies dont rely too heavily on the chemical leavening  provided by baking powder and soda bi carb but since this is an EGGLESS recipe I have used both albeit  lesser than what I would’ve used for a sponge cake or teacake recipe. A lot of different egg substitutes can be used like curd, flax seed paste, bananas, aquafaba, condensed milk,etc.
I have dabbled and experimented with most of them! Some results were really good while some were just plain duds. l have used curd as a substitute here. The combination of chocolate and cocoa powder makes for a very intense tasting brownie . The butter lends its amazing flavour while the oil keeps it moist.This recipe is the one I prefer when I have no time on hand to prep or fuss over what to make. Almost every ingredient  is already stocked in my pantry and the resulting brownies are very  versatile at the same time everything I want my brownie to be- chocolatey, dense and comforting.
This recipe yields a very dense eggless chocolate brownie but cakey and moist brownie. Its a one bowl recipe that is really easy to put together and always yields a consistent result. Ive added some chopped walnuts and chocochips as topping, you can skip them if you so prefer or slather a layer of ganache on top for that extra chocolatey kick.
