These decadent brownies offer more than just a delicious dessert experience; they’re packed with ingredients that can benefit your body and mind.

Firstly, our Mint Chocolate Fudge Brownies are crafted with premium dark chocolate, which is rich in antioxidants. These antioxidants help combat oxidative stress in the body, reducing the risk of chronic diseases and supporting overall well-being.

Additionally, the presence of fresh mint leaves in our brownies adds a refreshing flavor and provides various health benefits. Mint is known for its digestive properties, soothing an upset stomach and promoting healthy digestion after a heavy meal.

Moreover, our brownies feature high-quality cocoa powder, which is a source of antioxidants and contains compounds that may improve mood and cognitive function. Enjoying a small serving of our Mint Chocolate Fudge Brownies can lift your spirits and boost your brainpower.

Furthermore, our recipe uses natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup instead of refined sugar. This not only reduces the brownies’ glycemic index but also ensures a steady release of energy without the crash associated with sugar spikes.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Serves 12

For the Brownies:

• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup coconut sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup coconut milk

For the Mint Chocolate Layer:

• 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Mix melted coconut oil, unsweetened applesauce, dairy-free milk, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dairy-free chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring between intervals until smooth and melted. Stir in the peppermint extract until well combined. Once the brownies are completely cooled, spread the mint chocolate layer evenly over the top.

Place the brownies in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate layer to set. Once the chocolate is set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Place them on a cutting board and slice into squares.
