I found this recipe on LearnRawFood.com, made a few adjustments and fell in LOVE with it! Had to share. It’s a great way to get your chocolate fix – totally naturally. No cooking required, so it’s a pretty immediate indulgence – in a healthy way. Gotta love it!
Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, No Sugar RAW Brownies
- 1 1/2 cups raw walnuts
- 1 t Himalayan pink sea salt
- 8 pitted dates
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 t vanilla extract
- 2 t water
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
Place the walnuts in a food processor fitted with the S-blade and process until coarsely chopped. Remove 1/4 cup of the walnuts and set aside. Add the salt to the remaining walnuts and process until finely ground. Add the dates and process until the mixture begins to stick together. Add the cocoa powder and vanilla and process until evenly distributed. Add the water, dried cranberries, and reserved walnuts, and process briefly, just to mix.
Pack the mixture firmly into a square container. Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator. I love to eat them after they’ve been in the fridge for an hour. Try the freezer, too.
