Instructions

Brownie:

  • Remove pits from dates and process until creamy.
  • Combine the creamy dates with the ground almonds and pecans, cacao powder, vanilla and salt and mix to incorporate all ingredients.
  • Line an 8x8 glass baking dish with parchment paper and spread the mixture until evenly distributed.

Macadamia Layer:

  • To make the almond milk, clean your food processor or blender and process the almonds and hot water. Strain the milk into a bowl using a cheesecloth.
  • Rinse the food processor and add the macadamia nuts, coconut oil, vanilla extract and lucuma powder and process until creamy.
  • Add the almond milk to the macadamia nut mixture and process to combine ingredients. You should be left with a mixture that is a thick and has a creamy consistency.
  • Distribute the mixture evenly over the brownie and place it in the freezer

Chocolate Ganache:

  • Melt the cacao butter over a double boiler.
  • Add the cacao powder, honey and vanilla and mix until all is combined.
  • Mix in the coconut cream.
  • Allow mixture to cool before you pour it on top of the macadamia layer. Once cooled, spread the chocolate over the macadamia layer and refrigerate overnight.

Notes

Homemade almond milk: blend 1 cup almonds with 2 cups hot water and strain with cheesecloth.
Coconut cream: this is the coconut cream that forms in a can of full fat coconut milk when left in the fridge overnight with the lid opened.
