Lately I’ve found a new way to get my chocolate fix.

Since being mostly plant-based, I have found myself really missing things like cookies and brownies. Which is weird since I didn’t eat that many of them before. But whatever.

Emily Spain over at Pretty Pies has so many delicious desserts that I can enjoy.

I’ve now made this recipe twice, and it’s seriously satisfying and much less sweet than you’d expect. Using my mini-scoop, the recipe yields 35. At that size, each bite clocks in at just 49 calories, with 1 gram of protein, 3.4 grams net carbs, and 3.5 grams fat.

This is a no-bake recipe that comes together in just a couple minutes if you have a food processor.

I used regular cocoa powder and kosher salt, since that’s what I have on hand.

You store them in the fridge, and if you’re worried about eating too many at once, just pop them into the freezer.

Are you baking or making treats for people for Christmas? I plan to include some of these.
