Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies

I am elated to uncover this recipe.

They’re sweet, and chewy, and nutty, and chocolatey, and they taste remarkably like real brownies, no joke. In short, each perfect bite is super indulgent satisfaction in your mouth, and I’m obsessed.

You will be too…

And as far as easy recipes go, this one’s a total winner. You just throw the ingredients in the food processor and pulse a few times, melt the chocolate, drizzle, then freeze. There’s maybe 10 minutes hands-on time, and you’re left with 10 little squares of heaven that will keep for a while in your fridge or freezer.

Hallelujah.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownies

2 cups walnuts
2 cups Medjool dates (pits removed)
½ cup almonds (raw and whole)
½ cup dark chocolate chips
¾ cup dark chocolate cocoa powder (or cacao)
3 tbs. honey
2 tbs. creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

In a food processor, add the walnuts and almonds and blend together until they form a flour-like consistency. Add the dark chocolate pieces and pulse together about 6-7 times. Add the dates, cocoa powder and honey. Pulse together until a dough-like consistency forms. At this point, the mixture should be slightly wet. Give it a pinch and if your mixture isn’t binding, you can add a bit more honey.

Pack the mixture down in a small brownie pan that is lined with parchment paper. Place in the fridge or freezer for about 5-10 minutes. Melt the dark chocolate in a small saucepan over low heat. Simply drizzle with peanut butter and the melted chocolate and enjoy!
