Equipment

Ingredients

Brownie

  • 4 cups walnuts
  • 1 1/3 cups dates
  • 2/3 cup cacao powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1-2 tbsp water

Fudge layer

Instructions

  • Place walnuts in a food processor and pulse to break down in to a rough meal.
  • Add cacao powder and pulse again to combine.
  • Add the dates, vanilla and salt and process until the mixture starts binding together. Add one tablespoon water and pulse to combine.
  • Test the mixture by pinching some between your finger and thumb. It should be moist and hold together without a crumb texture. If crumbs, add another tablespoon of water and pulse again.
  • Press this mixture into a parchment lined square or round pan.
  • Make the ganache by melting the coconut oil, adding the maple syrup and cacao powder and whisking until it turns thick, smooth and shiny.
  • Add in the tahini and use a whisk to completely incorporate. It will be thick, whisk until smooth.
  • Pout over brownie and smooth with spatula. Sprinkle with cacao nibs.
  • Chill for 2 hours before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
