Back in January I posted a recipe for Layered Brownie Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars .That recipe received glowing reviews all around. After I developed my 30 Second Raw Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough a few days ago the wheels in my head began to spin for some additional fun uses of this dough. This recipe is the result. These Brownies are ridiculously good.
What could be more delicious than brownies topped with cookie dough? AND then also dipped in chocolate. Nothing. Ok, nothing maybe aside from my crack brownie recipe, those are pretty good too.
To make this recipe Sugar Free leave out the Chocolate Chips and follow the directions to use the Stevia and Xyltol. Coconut Flour will not work in this recipe- if you are looking to make an alteration for the almond flour I suggest using another nut or seed flour with a mild flavor.
Chocolate Dipped Brownies topped with Raw Cookie Dough
Brownie Base.
1/3 Cup Cocoa Powder or Carob Powder
1/4 Tsp Salt
2 Tsp. Baking Powder
1/2 Cup of Granulated Sugar.
1 Tbs Vanilla Extract
3 Tbs Nondairy Milk or Water.
Raw Cookie Dough Topping
1 1/2 Cups Blanched Almond Flour
1 TBS Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 TBS Butter, Earth Balance, Ghee or Coconut Oil. (I use Garden of Life)
Any Variety of Granulated Sugar to taste OR pinch of Powdered Stevia to taste + 2-3 Tbs Xylitol.
1 1/2 Tsp. Any Variety of Milk or Water.
1/3 Cup Allergy Free Chocolate Chips (optional)
Melted Allergy Free Chocolate Chips for dipping (Such as Enjoy Life). or Homemade Sugar Free Sauce. (see recipe below)
- Place a sheet of parchment into a bread pan. (9 x 5) Allow the paper to overhang slightly on the edges.
- Preheat oven t0 350 Degrees. Make the brownie base: Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until it comes together. Use your hands to assist in the mixing is needed- dough will be extemely thick. Stir in the chocolate chips (optional). Press the dough into the prepared bread pan.
- Bake the brownies- for 30-35 minutes. until toothpick comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool 10-15 minutes.
- Make the raw cookie dough. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until smooth. Evenly press the Cookie dough on top of the surface of the brownies in their pan.
- Place the pan into the freezer for about 30 minutes for easy slicing. Remove pan from freezer and slice into squares. Dip each square into melted chocolate or carob. Place back into the freezer until the chocolate sets. And then.. EAT!
To Make Homemade Chocolate or Carob Sauce Combine(adjust this recipe to your taste and preference)
1 Cup High Fat Cocoa Powder or Carob Powder
1/2- 3/4 Cup of Coconut Oil Melted (The amount needed will vary between Cocoa and Carob)
Pinch of NuNaturals Powdered Stevia (to taste)
1/4- 3/8 Tsp. Salt (to taste)

Yes please! I'll take 20 These look amazing - also can't wait to check out your new cookbooks!
Those look amazing and inviting.
These look lovely. Very. I'm adding them to my list of must-make! Thanks Brittany!!!
Yummo!!
Quick question. Can we use honey or maple syrup or blended dates as a substitute for the sugar? Any thoughts on how much?
Looking forward to checking out your other recipes
You can try! You probably won't need any milk if you do- and might need a little extra almond flour. Taste as you go!
all i can say is ohmygosh yumm!
will def have to make a second time. too dry/brittle, but taste great. yours look so moist. only sub i made was truvia in place of sugar, and put in an 8x8 pan, so probably too thin.
Is there something that I can use instead of almond flour? Not only do I have a gluten allergy, but also an allergy to almonds.
Another Nut or Seed Flour SHould work! Check out Nuts.com for some really awesome other flours! I love their cashew flour!
Yeah all of your recipes always look amaaaazing but Im on GAPS and can only have honey! Maybe you can show some honey variations...
Alexis, all of the conversion rates I have seen for honey:sugar is 1/2:1. So if you are susituting the 1/2 cup of sugar (In the brownies) for honey, you would use 1/4 cup honey. Hope this helps!
Is this a replacement for the Chocolate cupcakes with cookie dough frosting?
I was hoping to make those for my twins birthday party tomorrow but am having difficutly finding it again on this site. I made those and had a problem with them sinking and tasting burnt with a spice. ANy idea what I did wrong on those? I did it 3 times and was at a loss as to my mistake LOL
Wow. These are amazing!!!!! I would've followed your directions completely except that I did not have the cocoa powder so I made them with just the base 'brownie' with only mini allergy free chocolate chips. I also used honey and they were still fabulous. Can't wait to try them with the cocoa in them!
