Prep Time 15 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

Brownie Base

  • 1 cup nuts a mix of walnuts, almonds and cashews
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • 1.5 cups pitted dates have given cups since dates can vary in size. if using medjool dates - about 15 of them
  • 1 tsp coconut oil if necessary

Chocolate Ganache

  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup/honey/liquid sweetener of choice
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence

Instructions

  • Pulse 1 cup nuts till it’s coarse, but not into a powder. Add 2 tbsp cocoa powder, 1 tsp chia seeds, 1.5 cups pitted dates and pulse again. It should be mushy and easy to hold, if not - add a tsp of coconut oil and pulse again. Spread into a square and chill for 10 minutes.
  • Into a small bowl, add 2 tbsp cocoa powder, 1-3 tbsp honey/maple syrup, 2 tbsp coconut oil and a little vanilla. Mix well and keep in fridge for 15 mins till the coconut oil firms up.
  • Spread, and top with what your heart desires and chill for a few hours so you can make clean squares.

Notes

  • If maple syrup is accessible to you, use it - else any liquid sweetener will work.
  • Any nuts will work - I had almonds and cashews so used that.
  • I used medjool dates that are super soft, if using regular dates soak in hot water for 10 mins, drain and pulse.
