Method

Add the dates to a bowl and cover with boiling water. Set aside to soak for at least 10 minutes.

Drain the dates then add to a blender along with the orange juice and blend into a puree. You can also use a fork if your dates are soft enough.

Add the puree to a bowl along with nut butter and Cocoa Powder and fold to combine.

Divide the brownie mixture into 6 and press into a muffin tray (silicone works best). Press down with your fingers or a shot glass to create a cup.

Now for the filling, add the Dark Chocolate Chips to a bowl and melt in the microwave in short bursts or on a double boiler. Add the orange juice and mix until smooth.

Divide the filling between your 6 brownie cups and add some orange zest on top. Pop in the fridge to set.
