When I want to bake, brownies are always my go-to recipe, because they are so fast and easy to make. This year, I wanted to try to update my brownies recipe to fit my Christmas mood and added some spice and of course gingerbread cookies!
This recipe is also vegan, and the brownies will be extremely fluffy and a quick fix to your or your guest’s chocolate cravings!
