Raw Fudge Brownies with Chocolate Ganache
Ingredients
For the Brownies:
- 1 1/2 cup dates pitted
- 1 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons almond milk or any nut milk
For the Ganache:
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons almond milk room temperature
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
For Topping:
- 1/4 cup walnuts chopped
Instructions
- To prepare the brownies, line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Add the pitted dates, walnuts, and cocoa powder to a blender. Blend until fully combined and the mixture forms fine crumbs. Add the almond milk and blend to combine. You may need to stir with a spatula until fully combined and smooth.
- Firmly pat the mixture into the prepared pan and set aside.
- To prepare the ganache, add the melted coconut oil, cocoa powder, almond milk, and maple syrup in a small bowl. Whisk to combine. If your almond milk is not room temperature, you may need to melt the mixture in order to achieve a smooth liquid to pour over the brownies. Pour the ganache over the prepared brownies in an even layer. Top with chopped walnuts. Place in the fridge to set for about 1 hour.
- Slice into 8-12 squares, depending on your desired size.
