Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 180c and line a brownie tin with baking powder.

  • Step 2

    In your Ninja Kitchen food processor, add in all of the dry ingredients and blitz to combine.

  • Step 3

    Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together, then stir this through your dry ingredients. Add in 2/3 of your milk mixture, stir everything to fully combine, then mix in the remaining liquid. If your batter is still too thick, you can add a touch more milk.

  • Step 4

    Fold in the chocolate chunks, then spread your batter into the lined tin and bake for around 20 minutes.

  • Step 5

    For the delicious frosting, spoon the almond butter, melted chocolate, cacao powder and maple syrup into your Ninja. Add in the coconut cream and blend until ultra smooth and creamy.

  • Step 6

    Frost your brownies and tuck in!
