HEALTHY FLOURLESS FUDGE BROWNIES

These healthy flourless fudge brownies are rich, soft and super fudgy, you’d be surprised that they only contain THREE ingredients- None of them being butter, oil, flour or sugar! Thanks to the layer of healthy frosting on top, they taste even more fudgy! While the process of making the brownies is super easy, the hard part is waiting to enjoy them- While tasting amazing from the oven (pre-frosting), for optimum taste and texture, it’s best to allow them to cool completely and refrigerate them.

HACK! Usually when I share recipes which involve frosting, I recommend freezing without and adding it after thawing. These, however, freeze beautifully WITH the frosting and once thawed slightly, take on an even fudgier texture- Seriously, try it out and see!
