Raw Brownies!

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

1 cup ground pecans
1 cup dates (not soaked)
1/4 cup (heaping) cocao powder (you can use cocoa too)
1 good teaspoon agave nectar
Icing:
1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter
1 tablespoon avocado (optional)
1 tablespoon agave
1/2 tablespoon cocao powder (or cocoa)

Directions:

Process the brownie ingredients. Press into a pan or bowl.

Now process icing ingredients. If you use the coconut oil right out of the jar (firm) it should get very creamy in your food processor. If you do it by hand, warm up the oil jar in a bowl of water and use it in liquid form.

Spread onto brownies.

Refrigerate for at least ten minutes, That's as long as I can wait. now slice and enjoy!!

Source of recipe: I came up with this recipe after a few tries.

I am in love with these brownies.

I used sliced almonds instead of pecans. My icing was very runny, so I drizzled over top of the brownies just as a garnish. Next time I would use much less oil. Picture to come soon!

It is is runny at first, since it is melted, but when you refrigerate the pan, it firms to an icing consistency. Similar to when you make raw cakes, how you add melted coconut oil, then after you refrigerate or freeze, it turns the pudding type filling firm. I really want to try the almond idea! Yum!

I used raw almonds instead and these were so delicious! My cheap blender wouldn't puree them fully, so I made them into candies for my friend's birthday. Just formed 'um into balls, melted some rich, ancho chile infused, dark chocolate, rolled them in it, and put them in the fridge to set a few minutes. I'm not raw, but I loved this recipe since it has dates (so very tasty), and no flour which is awsome as I'm gluten and wheat free. Such sinful yumminess!

I made a version of these very similar to this but the frosting made a bigger batch and looked just like glossy homemade frosting. I added a pinch of cinnamon to both brownie and icing....so good! I have been thinking about making them without icing and adding dried cherries.
