Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Base
  • 1 cup Almond Flour Substituting with oat flour may require adjusting the liquid due to its drier nature.
  • 1/2 cup Chocolate Protein Powder Feel free to use cocoa powder instead if you prefer a richer chocolate flavor.
  • 1 cup Dates Soak hard dates in hot water for 5 minutes to soften for easier blending.
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Oil Make sure it's melted before mixing for the best consistency.
For the Cookie Dough Layer
  • 1 cup Almond Flour You can swap it with any nut flour you like for a unique flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips Optional for those who want a lighter version of these cookie dough brownies.

Equipment

  • food processor
  • 9x5 Loaf Tin

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a food processor, combine almond flour, chocolate protein powder, and softened dates. Blend these ingredients on high for about 1-2 minutes until a smooth, dough-like consistency forms.
  2. Line a 9x5 loaf tin with parchment paper for easy removal. Press the brownie mixture into the bottom of the tin, ensuring an even layer. Place the tin in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
  3. Rinse the food processor and add almond flour, melted coconut oil, and chocolate chips for the cookie dough layer. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Carefully remove the brownie base from the freezer. Spread the cookie dough mixture evenly over the brownie layer using a spatula, ensuring it is well distributed.
  5. Return the assembled brownies to the freezer for about 1 hour to allow the layers to firm up.
  6. Once firm, lift them from the tin using the parchment paper and slice into squares or rectangles.
