Categories: Instant Pot

Ingredients

• 5 tbsp butter, softened or melted
• 1/4 c unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 c sugar
• 3/4 c flour
• 1/4 tbsp vanilla
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• 2 eggs
• 1 tbsp diced walnuts optional
• 1 1/2 c water for inside of IP
• 1 tbsp creamy peanut butter optional

Directions

1. Add dry ingredients in 1 bowl and wet in another, stir each.
2. Add all ingredients together into 1 bowl (minus the optional ingredients). If you are adding nuts fold into brownie mixture.
3. Spray non stick spray on inside walls on springform pan.
4. Lay precut parchment paper liner into pan and put tbsp of peanut butter in the middle, or caramel pcs in the middle.
5. Pour brownie batter on top and spread so it is the same thickness across the pan.
6. Put aluminum foil over the top.
7. Put a small glass bowl at bottom of your Instant Pot , or trivet, and pour 1 1/2 c. of water around it.
8. Put filled springform pan on top of cup or trivet and put IP lid on.
9. Set to manual, pressure, 50 minutes on high for a 6" pan
10. Do a slow release (meaning move steam valve just a bit open so the steam comes out really slowly).
11. Allow to cool completely, then release the clasp on the side of the springform pan and take outer rim off. Put a plate on top and flip over carefully, then remove parchment paper and serve. It will be a very dense flourless cake – fudgy style consistency.
