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
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
- 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.
- 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.
- Pour melted chocolate mixture into the mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- Add in vanilla, cocoa powder and tapioca flour. Stir to combine.
- Pour batter into the lined baking pan. Dot with extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
- Bake for 24 to 27 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
- 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.
