For the Frosting
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I use the "Enjoy Life" brand)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tsp maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Cook the sweet potato in an oven or microwave until soft. Cut it in half lengthwise, and scoop out the flesh into a large bowl.
- Mash the sweet potato with a fork until there aren't any large chunks. Add the wet ingredients to the mashed sweet potato, and mix until combined.
- Combine the dry ingredients in a small bowl (including the chocolate chips), and slowly add it to the wet ingredients.
- Line an 8" square baking pan with parchment paper, and give it a quick spray with coconut oil. Pour the brownie batter into the pan, and pop it in the oven.
- Bake the brownies at 350ºF for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Transfer the brownies to a cooling rack, and move on to the frosting.
- Add the chocolate chips, coconut oil, and maple syrup to a small bowl. Heat it in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds, until the chips begin to melt. Mix it thoroughly.
- Spread the frosting over the cooled brownies before cutting.
- Cut into 12 or 16 squares (depending on how big you want your brownies!).
- Enjoy! And come back to let me know how you like them!
