¼ cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon almond milk
1 tablespoon coconut oil
¼ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Make the Brownie Base:
Add dates, walnuts, hazelnuts, and cocoa powder to a food processor.
Blend until a brownie-like consistency forms.
Press firmly into a lined loaf pan.
Prepare the Caramel Layer:
In a small bowl, stir together almond butter, maple syrup, almond milk, coconut oil, and sea salt until smooth.
Pour over the brownie base and spread evenly.
Set and Serve:
Place in the freezer for about 1 hour until firm.

Store brownies in the freezer for the best texture.
