Gluten-free & Vegan Cosmic Brownies {GF, V, DF}

Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies are one of the most popular kids’ snacks- really anything Little Debbie you know is going to be a HIT! But, what about us gluten-free folk? Every time I grocery shop, I always check out the snack aisle, and even though I know those foods aren’t #glutenfree or #healthy , you must admit, they look TASTY! So, I took it upon myself to make GLUTEN-FREE, DAIRY-FREE, and VEGAN Cosmic Brownies that are SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE! 🙂

If you’ve been following my blog for some time, you might remember my GLUTEN-FREE, VEGAN, PALEO FUDGEY BROWNIES! Today’s recipe uses the same base recipe, but tops them with CHOCOLATE FROSTING and RAINBOW SPRINKLES!

Let’s get baking!!! 🙂
