White chocolate Candy Cane Brownies

I have been digging the white chocolate season. Did you catch my white chocolate cherry orange cookies yet?

Well to continue on this theme, I took my favourite chocolate brownie recipe topped it with white chocolate and crushed candy cane for a festive dessert. These are perfect to make ahead and stick in the freezer to pull out when guests arrive.

Prep time: 10 min Total time: 60 min Servings: 24 brownies

Ingredients: 

2 eggs

1 and ¼ cup semi sweet chocolate chips (¾ cup melted).

1 tbsp of vanilla extract 

6 tbsp of avocado oil 

1 cup of almond flour

⅔ cup of coconut sugar 

¼ cup of cocoa powder 

½ tsp of baking powder 

½ tsp of sea salt 

1 cup of white chocolate chips

1/2 cup crushed candy cane

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a 9x9 square baking pan with parchment paper. 

Step 2: Melt ¾ cup of chocolate chips with avocado oil in a small saucepan until all the mixture is liquid and all the chocolate is dissolved. Set aside to cool. 

Step 3. Mix eggs and sugar with a whisk (or stand mixer) until foamy. 

Step 4: Add the chocolate mixture and then your vanilla. 

Step 5: Mix in dry ingredients (almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt). 

Step 6: Pour the mixture into your baking pan and bake for 25-30 min. You want the center to be a bit gooey when you pull it out as the brownies will continue to bake a bit more after it’s been removed from the oven.

Step 7: top with your white chocolate chips. The chocolate will start to melt and you can take your spatula and knife and start to spread it around. Top with your crushed candy and set to cool on a wire rack. Feel free to stick in the fridge for 20-30 min before cutting and serving
