How do I make brownie butter mochi gluten-free?

Good news! These vegan brownies are naturally gluten-free as written. Glutinous rice flour is made from rice grains and is free from any wheat or other glutinous proteins.

What is firm silken tofu?

Firm silken tofu is a shelf-stable variety (not refrigerated!) of silken tofu. The most common brand available is mori-nu and comes in a blue box. Instead of looking for it with the rest of the tofu, look in the International aisle of the grocery store, or stop by your local Asian grocery store.

How long will these brownies keep?

These brownies are best enjoyed fresh but will keep in an airtight container for up to 48 hours at room temperature or refrigerator for 4 days, just be sure to warm them up to soften out of the fridge before consuming.
