Ingredients
  

Brownies

  • 1 1/2 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup nondairy milk – I used unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup date paste – 15 medjool dates blended with 1 cup hot water
  • 3/4 cup rolled oats, blended into flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips – I used PASCHA unsweetened chips

Cookie dough frosting

  • 1 1/2 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 12 medjool dates
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips – I used PASCHA unsweetened chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl combine the oat flour and cocoa powder.
  • Blend the chickpeas and almond milk until totally smooth, and add to the dry ingredients.
  • Add the date paste and stir until everything is combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, and pour the batter into a nonstick or sprayed square pan.
  • Bake for 40 minutes.
  • Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 1 hour.
  • To make the frosting, combine all the ingredients except chocolate chips in the food processor and blend until totally smooth, thick and creamy.
  • Spoon cookie dough into a bowl and mix in the vegan chocolate chips - make sure the mixture isn't hot from blending so the chocolate chips don't melt.
  • Spread the cookie dough frosting over the cooled brownies.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
