Notes

  • Just before starting this recipe soak the chia seeds and make sure to stir until it becomes sticky. We do not want it soaked for very long.
  • To melt the chocolate chips – measure it before melting and place it in a microwavable bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds. Take it out and stir a bit. Microwave again for another 30 seconds. Take it out and stir. If it is still not melted properly microwave it again for another 20-30 seconds. Take it out and stir vigorously. It should be melted by now and combine it in the blender with other wet ingredients.
  • For the frosting – its ok if the peanut butter is not very smooth but whip it up manually and with a spoon.
  • This recipe makes 8 large size brownies or 16 smaller sized brownies. 
  • The leftovers can be refrigerated in an air tight container for 4-5 days. Simply warm them up in microwave as per your desired temperature or bring it to room temperature.
