Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes
Servings 12 brownies

Ingredients:

  • Ā¾ cup Flourish Chocolate Protein Pancake Mix
  • Ā½ cup cocoa powder
  • Ā¼ tsp salt
  • 1 Ā½ cup coconut sugar
  • 10 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 eggs and 1 egg yolk, room temperature
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Chocolate Ganache

  • 1 Ā½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • Ā½ cup heavy cream
  • Rainbow Chips or mini M&Mā€™s, sprinkles, or other candy

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350Ā°F and line a 8 x 8 pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl whisk together Flourish, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until combined. Add the eggs, honey, and vanilla extract and whisk until combined, about 1 minute.
  4. Stir in the dry ingredients until no clumps of flour or cocoa remain. Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out mostly clean. Allow the brownies to cool.
  5. While the brownies cool, make your ganache. Place the cream in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. Add in the chocolate chips. Let stand for 3 minutes before stirring until smooth. Pour over the cooled brownies and smooth evenly. Sprinkle with the Rainbow Crunch Chips. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or until the frosting is set, before cutting.

*Brownies can be stored in an airtight container for 3 days at room temperature and for 1 week in the fridge. Brownies are best served chilled.
