Instructions

  1. Line a 9×9 inch square dish with parchment paper, leaving some paper hanging over the edges.

Notes

Always use soft Medjool dates for the best texture in the brownie base.
Ensure your coconut cream is thoroughly warmed and whisked for a silky smooth ganache.
Chill the brownies fully for at least 4 hours to ensure the ganache sets properly for clean cuts.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
