CHANGING THE GAME w/ SWEETS

people think it's impossible to eat healthy and still be able to indulge in sweets. well, i'm hear to tell you that with the right ingredients, you can indulge. you can even indulge by eating the whole pan in ONE day like i did.

these paleo brownies are filled with clean ingredients and are packed with minerals and antioxidants like cacao powder, caco nibs and walnuts. the coconut flour and coconut oil also adds benefits like gluten free, high in fiber and nutrients, and easily digestible carbohydrates, while the coconut oil makes this amazing recipe dairy free.

i was not disappointed in these brownies. they are full of chocolate flavor and the texture is very acceptable. they are moist, on the dense side, and not too cake-y, but not too fudge-y either! for added sweetness use agave and organic honey.
