Dessert of the Day Sign-Up
Vegan Brownie Cookie S’mores
Yield: 9
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 27 minutes
Ingredients
For the Cookie Layer
- 1/2 cup coconut oil, softened
- 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups organic flour (or gluten-free flour)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 3–6 tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 3/4 cup Lily’s Sweets dark chocolate chips
- 1 large bag vegan marshmallows (we recommend Dandies, both GF and Vegan)
For the Brownie Layer
- 4 flaxseed eggs
- 1 cup vegan butter or coconut oil, melted
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup melted Lily’s Sweets chocolate chips
- 1 cup flour or gluten-free 1:1 baking flour
- 1 cup cacao powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup Lily’s Sweets chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F and line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper.
- Make the cookie layer: In a large bowl, beat together the softened coconut oil, applesauce, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Sift in the flour, baking soda, and sea salt, and fold the dry ingredients into the wet. Add in the dairy-free milk, starting with 3 tbsp and adding more if needed until you get a smooth and slightly sticky dough.
- Fold in the Lily’s Sweets chocolate chips. Press the cookie dough into the bottom of the pan. Line the cookie dough with vegan marshmallows.
- Make the brownie layer: in a large bowl, mix together the flaxseed eggs, coconut sugar, vegan butter, and melted chocolate with a spoon.
- Sift in the flour, cacao powder, and baking powder, and use a rubber spatula to fold the dry ingredients into the wet until it’s just mixed.
- Fold in the remaining chocolate chips, and pour the batter on top of the marshmallow layer.
- Bake the bars for 25-27 minutes, or until the top of the brownie layer has set.
- Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing and slicing.
