Made these raw brownies the other night for the kids. They are super good and are not filled with a bunch of junk. In fact, besides the sugar in the dates, I am a big fan of everything in them! Having some in your freezer, for one of those moments, is not a bad idea (one should do the trick). Give them a try when you need a little sweet treat!
the stuff:
1 1/2 cups organic walnuts
1/3 cup raw cacao powder
8 pitted organic medjool dates
1 tsp organic vanilla extract
2 teaspoon water
raw almonds (about 14)
what to do with the stuff:
1. In your Vita-Mix (or food processor), grind the walnuts until fine
2. Add raw cacao powder
3. Add dates until dough forms
4. Add the vanilla and water
5. Scoop out a tablespoon full of dough and roll into a ball and pat down
6. Add a raw almond (or walnut) on top of each brownie
7. Put in freezer for about 15-20min
