Healthy Yummy Alternative for Chocolate lovers

Happy Healthy Days!
Healthy Version for the Chocolate Brownie

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
How good does this look? Its my chocolate quick fix made with no flour nor sugar nor eggs, is easy to make & tastes delish. Made it into a choc fudge brownie stack for my nieces bday.   Something to have when the sweet temptation takes hold, but still everything in moderation not too many :-)
1 Cup Almonds
4 Tbsp Coconut
1 Cup Pitted Dates
¼ Cup Cocoa for base & ½ Cup Cocoa for top
4 Tbsp Honey
4 Tbsp Nuttelex Butter or other Nut butter
2 Bananas
1 Tbsp juice from Orange
 
1. Grind Almonds, Dates, Coconut & ¼ Cup Cocoa to crumb-like consistency
2. Push mixture firmly into tin to make brownie base
3. Blend Honey, Bananas, ½ cup Cocoa, Nuttelex Butter, orange juice till smooth
4. Spread mixture on top of base
5. Freeze
TIPS
*Substitute Bananas for Apricots and/ or Figs
* Orange may be substitute for other flavourings that you like also
* Pay special attention to compacting base especially in corners
* This is a healthier version to brownie, but still not recommended to enjoy in small portions. That’s the true beauty of this version as you can keep in freezer and just cut off small pieces as you like.
Yes it is true you can find substitutes for Chocolate that are yummy, give this a go you won't be disappointed. It's fantastic cold or at room temperature too.
Enjoy!
