Vegan Bites: Rich & Raw Brownies

 

Officially the second raw brownie recipe that we'll be making many times over: rich & raw. 

This is a two layer brownie; a date, cocoa and nut base with a chocolate coconut ganache. It slices like butter (with the help of a warm knife) slightly sweet, but sickeningly rich. Full of protein, healthy fat and vitamins too!

We modified this recipe from 'Nutrition Refined' https://nutritionrefined.com/raw-brownies/
