They are very light and fudgy, if you prefer a richer one try these aubergine ones http://healthyalamauricienne.blogspot.com/2013/06/chocoholic-delights.html or if you want a more cakey one try these sweet potato ones http://healthyalamauricienne.blogspot.com/2013/06/sweet-potato-brownies-nom-nom-nom.html, but these Chou chou brownies are by far my favourite!! There is some dark chocolate in this recipe (which does contain sugar) but the ratio of about 1:7 of chocolate to chou-chou makes for a very healthy yet indulgent dessert!!
CHOU CHOU BROWNIES
Makes about 16 brownies
- 1 large chou-chou ( I used an 800 g chouchou, would probably use slightly less next time 600-700 g)
- 65 g Peanut butter (try get the sugar and salt free type)
- 50 g honey
- 3 eggs
- 40 g cocoa
- 25 g almond meal
- 100 g dark chocolate
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Peel, chop and cook (either microwave or boil) your chou-chou until soft and puree until smooth.
- Break up your dark chocolate and melt with 1 tbsp coconut oil, either in your microwave or on a double boiler stirring constantly to prevent the chocolate from burning.
- Beat together your peanut butter, eggs, vanilla and honey until smooth and creamy, fold in your chocolate mixture and pureed chou-chou. Slowly sift in your dry ingredients and stir until you obtain a smooth consistent batter ( it will be quite runny!)
- Pour your batter into a well greased glass dish and bake for 25-30 minutes at 175 degrees Celsius.
My brownies were for some guests so I drizzled on some melted dark chocolate and crushed walnuts. I also made some sugar free gluten free thumbprint cookies that I'll post on in abit:)!
