There is nothing better than sinking your teeth into chocolatey, rich fudgey chocolate brownies. Bake them for your Sunday meal prep, and keep them in the fridge as the healthy alternative for when that craving in the week hits! I have been having these as my tea time treat.

Instructions
Combine all ingredients for brownie above in a bowl.
Place mixture into a lined brownie tin, and bake at 180°C for 15-20 mins until just underdone (toothpick should NOT come out clear). Take out and allow to cool.
In the mean time, warm the coconut oil in a pan on the stove and allow it to melt.
Add in the nut butter and take off heat. Stir in the raw cocoa, maple syrup and vanilla.
Pour glaze over brownies and leave to cool. Place in fridge and allow to set for a minimum of 3 hours!
