November is #WorldVeganMonth, so we wanted to share one of our favourite vegan recipes for Frosted Raw Vegan Brownies. Made using our cacao powder and cacao nibs, this rich chocolate brownie has a tempting peanut butter topping and really is a chocolate lover's dream! Ingredients VEGAN RAW BROWNIES 425g of dates, pitted 150g of hazelnuts 150g of ground almonds 60g Food Thoughts Natural 100% Cacao Powder 2 tbsp Food Thoughts Natural 100% Cacao Nibs 2 tbsp of maple syrup 1/4 tsp salt FROSTING Frosting 30g of peanut butter, (smooth) 2 tbsp of maple syrup 2 tbsp Food Thoughts Natural 100% Cacao Powder 2 tbsp of soya milk 1 tbsp Food Thoughts Natural 100% Cacao Nibs Method Check that all of the dates are pitted and add them to a food processor. Blitz them until they are finely chopped Add the remaining ingredients and blitz until they form a smooth paste and everything is finely chopped to the same size Take a 20cm x 20cm square tin and line it with cling film. Tip the raw brownie ingredients into the lined tin and press it into the tin in an even layer. Place it in the fridge to chill Mix all of the frosting ingredients together (except for the cacao nibs) until they form a smooth icing. Spread this over the top of the brownie mixture in an even layer and sprinkle with the cacao nibs Leave to set for a couple of hours and then slice into nine squares. These will keep in an airtight container for at least a week
