One thing led to another, and before I knew it I had made brownies.
Brownies can very depending on your ingredients. I love my sweets, but if I can I always try to make a healthier unhealthy dessert.
Ingredients:
Salted Caramel -
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
6 1/2 tbs of unsalted butter dairy free alternative optional
1/2 tsp of salt
2 tbs of milk or almond milk
Do not substitute butter because it brings out the best caramel flavor, but you can use a dairy free alternative.
Sugar substitutes can be used, but some do not crystallize as regular sugar cane sugar does. I used a stevia blend sweetner and that is why my caramel didn't harden, however the flavor was not altered.
Brownies:
3 oz of unsweetend chocolate or
(9 tbs of cocoa
3 tbs of coconut oil or butter substitute) yields 3 oz
3 tbs of coconut oil or butter substitute
1 cup of sugar or sweeter alternative
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp of salt
2/3 cups of almond meal or flour substitute
If almond meal is used, the brownie will be a bit crumbly, but tasteful nonetheless
