No Bake Brownies: How It’s Done
- Line your 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond butter and maple syrup. Mix until smooth and creamy using a spatula or wooden spoon.
- Gradually sift in the cocoa powder, stirring continuously until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is thick and fudgy.
- Transfer the brownie mixture into your prepared baking pan. Spread it evenly and press down firmly to create a smooth top.
- Place the pan in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to help the brownies firm up and set.
- Remove the brownies from the refrigerator and spread the chocolate frosting evenly over the top.
- Lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- Store brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Freeze individual brownies wrapped in plastic wrap for up to three months.
- Add seasonal flavors like orange zest, fresh berries, pumpkin spice, or crushed peppermint for variety.
