Ingredients

Fo Bottom Layer:

• 1 cup Medjool dates (roughly 10, pitted)
• 1/2 cup raw almonds
• 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil

For Top Layer

• 2-3 medium avocados (about 3/4 cup)
• 4 tablespoons agave nectar
• 1 tablespoons coconut oil

Tools

• blender or food processor
• 8 x 8 inch brownie pan

Directions

1. Add all ingredients for the bottom layer to the blender or food processor. Blend until dates are smooth and nuts are in tiny pieces.
2. Pour contents into an 8 x 8-inch brownie pan and, using your hands, smooth it out on the bottom of the pan.
3. Place the pan in the freezer while working on the top layer.
4. Add avocados to a bowl and mash well with the back of a fork.
5. Rinse out blender or food processor and add all ingredients for top layer and blend until completely smooth.
6. Remove the pan from the freezer and pour on top of the bottom layer in an 8 x 8-inch pan and smooth out. Use a knife or spatula to smooth out the top.
7. Freeze 4-6 hours or overnight to set.
8. When ready to serve, remove from the freezer and let sit for 10 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve immediately.

Notes:

Leftovers can be stored in the freezer. It’s best to not leave these sitting out for too long, since the top layer gets soft quickly!

Try adding candy eyes to give these babies a monster flair!

Avocado in dessert makes for a smooth texture and tastes amazing with chocolate.
