Avocado Brownies
Author: Friday Cake Night
Serves: 8 inch pan
- 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
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line an 8 inch square with foil and coat lightly with cooking spray.
- 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.
- 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.
- Very slowly add the cooled chocolate to the avocado mixture. Stir in the cocoa powder, ground almonds and salt.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out nearly clean.
- Let the brownies cool and store in the fridge.
We found the brownies best served cold from the fridge.
