Serves: 8 inch pan
Ingredients
  • 200g chocolate, chopped. I used a mixture of semi and bitter sweet.
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup ground almonds
  • ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line an 8 inch square with foil and coat lightly with cooking spray.
  2. Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a sauce pan of simmering water. Let it cool while you prepare the batter. Placing it in the fridge works well.
  3. Mash the avocados in a large bowl. Cream the avocados and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
  4. Very slowly add the cooled chocolate to the avocado mixture. Stir in the cocoa powder, ground almonds and salt.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out nearly clean.
  6. Let the brownies cool and store in the fridge.
Notes
We found the brownies best served cold from the fridge.
