Gluten Free Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Brownie Sundae

Happy Thursday! my husband and I arrived to Pittsburgh last night to spend some time with his family before our big move to Hawaii(!!). It has been quite some time since we have visited so I’m extra excited to see everyone and hang out with our sweet little nieces!
Today I’m sharing the most delicious chocolate filled dessert, just in time for Valentine’s Day. I have made these gluten free brownie sundaes a few times now for different occasions and have received rave reviews from both friends and family. Only a few of them knew they were GF and the others couldn’t tell the difference! The fudge-y soft center and sea salt topping make these extra decadent and rich. Delicious by themselves but out of this world good when topped with a big scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of coffee liquor…
The absolute perfect dessert to finish off Valentine’s Day!
