No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Brownies

These No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Brownies are a real crowd pleaser! These brownies are the perfect combination of chocolate and peanut butter and the texture of them is perfect (chewy and fudgy)… Just the way I like my brownies 🙂

These brownies remind of those old school Little Debbies fudge brownies we all grew up eating, but instead these are so much more delicious and so much healthier! I hate to admit that those used to be one of my favorite snacks as a child, however I am so happy and proud that I was able to make a cleaner version to share with you.

The ingredients you will need to make these brownies are the following:

• natural peanut butter
• pure maple syrup
• homemade cashew milk (or nut milk of choice)
• unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao
• flaxseed meal
• coconut flour
• dairy free dark chocolate chips, optional
• unsalted peanuts, optional

You will also need a food processor .

Recipe:

Ingredients:

-Brownies-

• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
• 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
• 1/4 cup cashew milk (or nut milk of choice) at room temperature
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao
• 1/4 cup flaxseed meal
• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• Handful of dairy free chocolate chips (optional)

-Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting-

• 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
• 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
• handful of chopped unsalted peanuts (optional)

Instructions:

-Brownies-

1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a food processor add your peanut butter, maple syrup, milk (make sure the nut milk is at room temperature) unsweetened cocoa powder, flaxseed meal and coconut flour.
3. Blend until all the ingredients come together and form a brownie batter, about 30 secs. The dough will be dark, sticky and thick, that is what you want. If it looks dry, add 1 extra tablespoon of nut milk and blend again until thick batter has formed.
4. Gather the brownie batter with your hands, it can be sticky so you can wet your hands to make this easier, if needed.
5. Transfer the no bake brownie batter into a prepared loaf pan and press to flatten using a silicone spatula. Press your chocolate chips on top of your batter(optional). Freeze for 5-10 minutes. Meanwhile prepare the frosting.

-Frosting-

1. In a small mixing bowl, combine together peanut butter, maple syrup and unsweetened cocoa powder.
2. Remove the brownie from the freezer and spread the chocolate frosting on top.Add your chopped peanuts to the top (optional)
3. Place the no bake brownie in the fridge for 1 hour before slicing.
