GF Double Chocolate Walnut Brownies

Today I was browsing gluten free sites and blogs when I rediscovered The Gluten Free Doctor.  His blog is so full of information I could spend weeks reading as he provides so much information on the digestive system and various problems that relate.  What really got my attention today was the Double Chocolate Chip Brownies recipe that he featured from Elana's Pantry.  I have come across many GF brownie recipes, but haven't been inspired to whip out a batch as I was today.  I had everything on hand, and being able to find ingredients easily or already having ingredients on hand is one of my criteria  for keeping a recipe to try.  I didn't modify this recipe and it was a HIT with my whole family, of which I am the only one living a gluten free life.  All of my recipes that I have shared so far are recipes I have modified to fit the gluten and diary free lifestyle, this is the first one I haven't modified and REALLY wanted to share with others.
