Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the brownie base:
  • ⅔ cup natural peanut butter *see notes
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • ¼ cup non-dairy milk
  • ⅓ cup cacao powder unsweetened
  • ⅓ cup coconut flour
For the peanut butter caramel filling:
  • 1 cup dates soaked in hot water for 10 minutes to soften
  • ⅓ cup smooth, natural peanut butter
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • ⅔ cup peanuts
For the chocolate topping:
  • 1 cup non-dairy chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Line either an 8x8 pan or a 9x5 pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a bowl combine all of the brownie base ingredients until you have a dough. Press the dough into the prepared pan and place in the freezer to set while you make the filling.
  3. In a food processor, blend together the dates, peanut butter, and maple until smooth. Fold in the peanuts.
  4. Spread this peanut butter caramel mixture evenly over the brownie base and return to the freezer to set for about 30 minutes.
  5. Melt the chocolate chips and spread the melted chocolate evenly over the peanut butter caramel layer. Return to the freezer to set for another 20-30 minutes. Slice into brownies and enjoy!

Notes

*be sure you're using peanut butter where the only ingredient is peanuts! Using something other than natural peanut butter will not work, as the consistency is not the same.
