These brownies are seriously fudgy and dense – and, yes, are kosher for Passover. Believe it or not, they don’t contain any flour. Chocolate lovers, beware.
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
3 eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup Gefen Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
1 packet vanilla instant pudding mix
2 teaspoons Haddar Baking Powder
3/4 cup Gefen Potato Starch
1/4 cup nuts (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Prepare a square nine- by nine-inch baking dish. Grease the dish, line with Gefen Parchment and regrease.
In a large bowl, cream together the sugars and the eggs. Add in the oil, and mix again.
Add in the remainder of the ingredients and mix well until there are no clumps. Transfer the batter to the baking dish.
Cook in the preheated oven for an hour, until a toothpick down the center of the cake comes out clean.

I love that recipe, but I’m baking about 30 minutes in convection oven. Probably it depends on oven.
Amazing! Hugely popular with the troops!
Really delish!!! Don’t taste pesachdik!
Would never believe these are Pesachdig!! Made these brownies last year and everyone went wild for them! Huge hit with my family and all of our guests! Has anyone else tried to double them in a 9×13 pan? I think I tried last year and decided that a single recipe was better but forgot to write it down. 🙂
Hi, we are so happy that you and your family enjoyed this recipe! I have never tried doubling this recipe, it depends on the recipe whether it doubles well. For desserts, I’d prefer to make two batches just to be safe.
Inedible! I was sorry I made these brownies tonight for my guests. They were as hard as a rock. Is it possible the 1 hour cooking time is incorrect? The only thing I could say when I served them was that they were in commemoration of the bricks the Jews made in Egypt. Anyone else have any problem with this recipe??
I am so sorry for that. My brownies are baked in half that amount of time. I will look at the original file to see if there was an error when it was printed here.
HI Ellyn,
I was so intrigued by this recipe. I happen to have met a friend today and asked her for a chewy gooey brownie recipe and she used this one. I asked her how long it baked for. She said 45-50 minutes.
I decided to give it a try. I put it in the 9 inch square pan with the parchment paper. Mine grew so big and spilled all over the oven. So we have two people who had zero issues with it. One (you) who got hard as rock brownies and me who had too much batter for the pan. Right now it’s on my counter as a yummy brownie soup. I hope to get to the bottom of this recipe.
Delicious! Just tried this out, and so glad I did. Really yummy, and doesn’t taste pesachdik! Thank you!
Great! I will try it.
