Banana Pudding Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 each VERY ripe banana mashed
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 1 each egg room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Brownie Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chunks divided
  • ½ cup unsalted butter 2 sticks
  • ⅔ cups light brown sugar packed
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 each eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ cup gluten free all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup dark cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon coarse Kosher salt
  • ½ cup banana chips roughly chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • First, make the banana pudding mixture. Place all banana pudding ingredients into a medium bowl. Whisk together, using a handheld electric mixer on medium speed, until well combined and smooth, scraping down the bowl as needed. Set aside the banana pudding mixture while you make the brownie batter.
  • To make the brownie batter, place the butter and ¾ cup of the chocolate chunks in a medium glass bowl, melt together by placing in the microwave for 60 seconds. Stir the mixture, and then place in the microwave for an additional 30-60 seconds to melt completely.
  • Whisk in sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla extract.
  • Add gluten free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder and Kosher salt. Stir together until combined.
  • Spread in the greased pan, and dollop with the banana pudding mixture. Using a butter knife or a small off-set spatula, gently swirl the banana batter and brownie batter together creating a marble effect. Sprinkle the brownie batter with the remaining chocolate chunks and banana chips.
  • Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Place the pan in the refrigerator on a cooling rack to cool completely, about 2 hours.
  • Cut into 12 equal pieces before serving.

Notes

  • If you are not on a gluten free diet, you may substitute regular all-purpose flour
  • Be sure your banana is very ripe, but if you cannot wait that long to make this delicious recipe, you may ripen your banana in a 400 degree F oven for about 1o minutes. 
  • You may bake these brownies in a 9-inch baking pan, but they will be quite a bit thinner.
