For My Recent 50th Birthday, I celebrated with these. With their chewy, fudgy, indulgent taste and texture, they were the perfect choice. I hope you love them as much as I do. Enjoy!
A Brownie Recipe that was Decades in the Making
Rachel’s 50th Birthday Brownie Recipe
Super-food enriched, chewy, fudgy brownies
Ingredients:
4 large eggs
1 cup coconut sugar
⅓ cup super fine almond flour
3 T. organic baking cocoa powder
2T. chocolate flavored protein powder ( I used Welleco’s Super Kids one)
2 T. Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat flour (by Big Bold Health)-feel free to sub other flours
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
Pinch of pink salt
1 ¼ cup chocolate chips divided into 3/4c and 1/2c. (Note: I like to do 50% Lakanato/monk fruit sweetened chocolate chips and 1/2 63% chocolate chips by Ghirardelli or Guittard)
10 tablespoons refined coconut oil (½ cup + 2 T)
2/3 cup chopped walnuts ( I love WildlyOrganic.com for these)
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line an 8×11 pan with parchment paper on the bottom.
3. In stand mixer:
Beat eggs and coconut sugar on medium high for 5 min. until stiff and increased in volume. It should be thick. While it’s mixing….
4. On stovetop:
Combine coconut oil and 3/4c chocolate chips in pan and melt on low heat stirring frequently and removing quickly to prevent burning the chocolate. Set aside and let cool a few minutes.
5.To the egg/sugar mix add….the almond flour, buckwheat flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, salt, vanilla extract. Mix on low speed until incorporated.
6. As mixer continues to run on low, slowly drizzle in the melted oil/chocolate until incorporated.
7. Add nuts and 1/2 c. Chocolate chips and blend briefly until incorporated.
8. Pour batter into the pan. Gently spread the batter over the bottom of the pan evenly. It will be thinly covering the bottom of the pan.
9. Place in the preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. About 30 min. It will look glossy/wet on the surface.
10. Let cool. Cut. Store refrigerated. Enjoy with the drink of your choice, with ice cream, or in it’s simple perfection. Shout out to my Sister in Law who likes to have it with a cup of coffee…
Note: I included brands because, often, the final result varies according to the specific ingredients. Feel free to substitute.
Cheering you on,
Rachel
