Instructions
For the Brownies
Add all brownie ingredients to a food processor (start with just 1 Tablespoon water) and combine on medium or high speed. The mixture will be crumbly at first, and then it will start to come together into a giant ball– stop the mixer at this point. If needed, add up to 1 extra Tbsp. of water to help it come together.
Line a 8x8 inch baking dish with wax or parchment paper and press brownie mixture into pan. Place in refrigerator or freezer.
For the Ganache
Add almond milk to a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, until piping hot. Immediately add dark chocolate chips and coconut oil and stir once. Let chocolate sit and melt as much as possible, and if needed, microwave for 15-20 more seconds, and stir until chocolate is fully melted.
Take brownies out of fridge/freezer and spread ganache evenly across the top. Return brownies to fridge or freezer for at least 30 minutes, or until ganache and brownies fully set. Slice into 16 squares and enjoy!
Store in fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
