Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Pitted Medjool dates
• 1 cup Raw macadamia nuts
• 0.5 cup Raw cacao powder
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
• 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (dairy-free, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal and set aside.

Step 2

In a food processor, add the raw macadamia nuts and process until they break down into a coarse meal. Do not over-process, as this can turn them into butter.

Step 3

Add the pitted Medjool dates to the food processor and process until the mixture starts to become sticky and well-combined.

Step 4

Add the raw cacao powder, shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the food processor. Process again until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated and the mixture holds together when pressed between your fingers.

Step 5

If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips by pulsing them in or gently mixing by hand.

Step 6

Transfer the brownie mixture to the prepared baking dish. Use your hands or the back of a spatula to press and flatten the mixture evenly into the pan.

Step 7

Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set, or in the freezer for 30 minutes for a quicker set time.

Step 8

Once firm, remove the brownies from the dish using the parchment paper and cut into 8 equal squares or desired portions.

Step 9

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature!
