NO BAKE BROWNIES W/ CHOCOLATE GANACHE (PALEO + VEGAN)

you know how sometimes you just don’t want to turn on your oven. Your already very hot and humid home is in dire need of chocolate, preferably a brownie, but you are dreading the thought of turning on that oven and making the house even hotter. I totally get it and that is how these brownies became a thing and damnnnnn do they hit the spot!

For a brownie, they are super refreshing because they are cold  and they hit all of the sweet & salty notes you want in a decadent brownie. I topped mine with chopped organic strawberries for an even fresher summer taste and I totally nailed it. You will have to turn on your stove on low heat for about 5 minutes for the ganache, but it is so worth it. I dare you to not eat it all before you top the brownies with it. SO GOOD.

No bake brownies:

• 1 1/2 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cacao powder
• 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
• 1 1/2 cup raw walnuts
• 2 teaspoons vanilla

• 3/4 cup of chopped fruit of choice (or no fruit if you prefer)
