  • 2 servings of No Cow Chocolate Protein Powder

  2. In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, whip your peeled avocados until they are smooth
  3. Next, add in your maple syrup, salt, vanilla extract, baking powder, and espresso powder
  4. Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides of the bowl and add in your No Cow Vegan Chocolate protein powder and your cocoa powder
  5. Next add in your water to loosen the batter
  6. Using your rubber spatula, remove the bowl from your mixing attachments and fold in your gluten free flour and your sugar-free chocolate chips
  7. Pour your batter into your prepared pan and bake for 55 minutes to 1 hour
  8. Once the top is crackled and the brownies are baked through, let them cool for at least 2 hours before serving, this allows them to set
