Recipe for gluten-free, grain-free, vegan mint chocolate chip protein fudge brownies.

So many of you on Facebook guessed pretty darn close to today’s recipe! Guess you guys really know us, hehe.

Chocolate and mint are always a good first guess.

Mint chocolate chip protein fudge brownie bars recipe that is gluten-free and grain-free.

Easy dessert recipes are the best recipes. And this protein fudge brownie is super easy to make! Oh yay! 

We thought of doing our banana coconut fudge on top of the protein brownie bars. So we started whipping up the fudge as the brownies were cooling. Then we realized that the fudge probably won’t be enough to really cover the brownies. We wanted a thick, rich frosting for these ultimate mint brownie bars.  

Oh.. what… do we do now? —> we thought.

We came up with adding in an avocado and some coconut oil. Unsure of exactly how it would turn out, but we had a STRONG feeling it would be a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

And it was!

Perfectly rich, smooth and velvety.  And the avocados also helped with adding in some more natural green color. Brilliant!

These brownies need to be shared, as they are far too dangerous to be left alone with. We are totally obsessed and think you will too!

If you love chocolate and mint this recipe is for YOU!

We could eat like a hundred and still not get sick of them (ok…probably get a little sick).  Basically you need to make them. Why? Because they are awesome!

They are very visually appealing too, with the pale green contrasting with the brown of the chocolate. Love it!
