Culinary experiences could be sometimes really tough, especially with gluten free flours. Even in my kitchen disasters happen from time to time. You can imagine my excitement when a recipe I am working on actually turns out great during the first attempt. Paleo brownie with raspberries is one of those awesome recipes. It was definitely love at first bite. I baked this cake many times and there was never a need to change anything to make it more perfect. I guess it’s official then, Paleo brownie with raspberries is the best experiment on the blog!
