Delightfully delicious, yet deceivingly simple, this gluten-free treat will have friends and family alike asking the same question: “This is so yummy — are you sure it’s gluten free?”

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 13×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Prepare crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and cinnamon. Add melted butter. Stir with fork until evenly combined. Press into the bottom of parchment-lined pan. Bake for about 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare brownie layer: In a bowl, stir together brownie mix, half & half, vanilla extract and eggs. Pour over crust as soon as it is done baking.

Return to oven and bake for about 25 minutes. Top will look glossy. If testing with a toothpick, there will be a few sticky crumbs. Using the edges of the parchment paper, lift brownie delight out of pan and cool on a rack.

Prior to serving, make topping: Sift sugar and cocoa powder together. Pour whipping cream and vanilla into a chilled bowl. Add cocoa sugar mix and whip until light and fluffy. Top each serving of brownie delight with a dollop of topping. Refrigerate any leftover topping.
