Sweet dreams are made of these . . .
Super fudgy, flourless, salted dark chocolate rocky road brownies!!!!!!!
And yes, all the exclamation points are 100% required, plus maybe a few more!!!!!!!
My friends at Naked Harvest Supplements have just launched a new rocky road flavor of their magical moon mylk (the OG moon mylk has absolutely changed my life!) and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate them with a super fudgy, rich chocolate rocky road brownie!!
I know, I know, when you think of celebration treats you (and by you I mean, me) usually go for cake, cupcakes or even donuts which are all wonderful in their own right but IMO (today, anyway) I’m thinking brownies are >>>
And these deliciously indulgent, yet secretly healthy, rocky road brownies are greater than all!
Dare I say better than a box mix!
And I don’t just mean because they’re made with wholesome, “better for you” ingredients, I mean because they truly taste all kinds of incredible!
They are decadent, rich, perfectly sweet, and seriously, and I mean SERIOUSLY chocolaty!
Crispy on the top, chewy on the edges and super, SUPER fudgy in the middle! Just as a good brownie should be!
But, they also pack a nutritional punch thanks to the magical moon mylk mix they’re boosted with:
Ashwagandha – to help calm the nervous system
Magnesium – helps ease muscle soreness & relax the mind
L-Tryptophan – an essential amino acid that helps release serotonin to promote more restful sleep
Zinc – helps the metabolism of Melatonin which is a key hormone for healthy sleep.
Passion-Flower – can help reduce anxiety, insomnia, and certain forms of pain because it may increase levels of GABA which helps regulate your mood.
So, if you’re looking for an excuse to eat more brownies then look no further friend, I got you
And yes you can absolutely make these without the rocky road moon mylk mixture and I promise they will still be “get out of town” delicious just not quite as magical and you dont get all the nutritional benefits but either way I guarantee my secretly healthy, super fudgy, dark chocolate rocky road brownies will absolutely rock your world! But if you do want to try the rocky road moon mylk mix (and hear me when I say, you really do, its seriously delicious!) you can use XOEM to get 15% off.
It’s everything you love about a cozy cup of hot chocolate, complete with puffy pink marshmallows (because you and I both know pink is the greatest marshmallow of all time, right!) but in the form of brownies. Because why just have a traditional hot chocolate (or plain ol’ rocky road) when we can have brownies?!
Made with no refined flours or sugar using just a handful of ingredients that I bet you have on hand and can be ready to devour in less than 30 minutes!
Crispy on the top, chewy on the edges and super, SUPER fudgy in the middle and don’t even get me started on the cheats dark chocolate ganache . . . heeellloooooooooo

Super Fudgy Rocky Road Brownies
- Cook Time: 20 mins
- Persons: 8-16
- Difficulty: Easy
- Ingredients
- 2 eggs – or flax eggs
- 1 C almond butter
- 4 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup monk fruit sweetener (or coconut sugar)
- 2 Tbsp cacao
- 2 Tbsp Naked Harvest Rocky Road Moon Mylk pwd – XOEM = 15 % off
You can sub more cacao but they wont be quite as magical or rocky road-ish - 1/2-1 tsp instant espresso – I use decaf
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- Dark chocolate – chips or chopped – measure with your heart
- A pinch of salt
- Optional add ins –
- Collagen – adds a hit pf protein & great for hair, skin, nails & gut health
- For the frosting –
- 1/3 C coconut (or regular ) cream
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate + 1-2 extra Tbsp for drizzling, if you want
- 1/2 tsp instant espresso (opt – I use decaf)
- 1 Tbsp almond butter
- a pinch of salt
- Marshmallows
- Peanuts &/or almonds
- Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 175’C/350’F
- Line a small baking dish (or mini loaf pan) with baking / parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium-size bowl, lightly whisk your egg, vanilla, maple syrup, and almond butter until smooth, creamy, and well combined.
- Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes (I like mine at 17 minutes), until just set, the top should spring back when lightly pressed and a toothpick should have just a few crumbs attached when inserted into the middle. DO NOT OVER BAKE! Sorry for yelling, but it’s important!
- While your brownies are baking prepare your frosting –
- Add the chopped chocolate, almond butter and espresso pwd (if using) into a bowl.
- Heat the cream in a saucepan over low heat just until bubbles appear around the edges and it’s warm.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 30 seconds, then stir continuously until it’s smooth. Let it cool slightly until it thickens and is spreadable without dripping.
- Spread on the cooled brownies.
- Add your toppings.
- Slice.
- Devour!
