Ingredients

1 cup walnuts
1 cup pitted dates
6 tbsps cocoa powder
A pinch of salt
1/4 cup roasted walnut chunks

Method

Chop the dates into smaller pieces so that it is easy to grind them.
Alternatively, soak them in boiling water if they are extra firm.
In a mixer, add walnuts, cocoa powder and a pinch of salt and give it a blitz until you get a powder like consistency.
Add dates and grind well to combine everything.
Add warm water if it is getting difficult to grind the mixture.
Transfer this crumbly dough into a mixing bowl and add chopped roasted walnut chunks.
Turn mixture on a parchment paper or a plate and spread it into a large square.
Cut into pieces and garnish it with some crushed walnuts.
You can also make vegan chocolate ganache with coconut oil and cocoa powder and top it up on your brownies.
Refrigerate for a few hours and serve.
