Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup tapioca flour or cornstarch
  • chocolate chips to garnish
  • sea salt for garnish

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add eggs and coconut sugar. Use a hand mixer to beat together for 2 to 3 minutes, until light and frothy.
  3. In a skillet over low heat, add melted coconut oil and chocolate chips. Stir constantly until fully melted and creamy. Or, microwave in 30 second increments.
  4. Pour melted chocolate mixture into the mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
  5. Add in vanilla, cocoa powder and tapioca flour. Stir to combine.
  6. Pour batter into the lined baking pan. Dot with extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
  7. Bake for 24 to 27 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
  8. Finally, remove from oven. Garnish with sea salt if desired. Allow brownies to cool before slicing into.

Notes

  • Beat eggs and coconut sugar for at least 2 to 3 minutes.  This helps get those shiny tops on the brownies!  Do not mix this by hand; use a stand mixer or electric hand mixer.
  • Melt the coconut oil and chocolate chips until fully melted.  Stir constantly to prevent burning.
  • Do not bake too long.  Insert toothpick into brownies.  It should come out with moist crumbs.
  • Allow brownies to fully cool before slicing into.
  • Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • These brownies are great chilled.
  • Freeze for 1 month if desired.
