These fudgy brownies are extremely decadent, rich with flavor, and so fudgy! If you are a chocolate lover, you have to try these. Grab a glass of milk (you will need it!) and make these fudgy brownies immediately!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These fudgy brownies have a not so secret ingredient in them. If you guessed avocado, then you are right! You cannot taste the avocado. However, it does contribute to the overall creaminess and texture of the brownies. I mean, if Tom Brady can eat avocado ice cream, I can eat a brownie with a little avocado in it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Fudgy<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What makes these fudgy brownies healthy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These brownies have no processed sugar in them! They are sweetened with maple syrup (I get mine from Costco<\/a>!) and real chocolate chunks. You can choose to use milk chocolate (a little less healthy, but still a good option!) or dark chocolate. When I was testing this recipe, I realized that brownies do not need loads of sugar. What they do need is rich flavor, and boy do these have it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used almond flour as the flour in these brownies. Depending on the brands\/quality of the other ingredients that you choose to use, these brownies should be gluten free! Just be aware that gluten tends to hide in other things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I said above, these brownies have 2 avocados in them! Avocados are an excellent source of fat, which everyone needs in their diet. So, really, these brownies should be apart of your diet everyday…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s talk icing:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These brownies have a delicious fudgy icing that is made using maple syrup, coconut oil, chocolate chips, and cocoa powder. Now, I will let you in on a little secret. One of the times I was testing this recipe, I ran out of chocolate chips right before I was making the icing. I decided to use a pudding cup in the place of the chocolate chips. Let’s just say, it worked. So, if you run into the same snafu as me, feel free to use a chocolate pudding cup!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
