- 1/2 cup raw walnuts
- 1/2 cup raw almonds
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons hemp seeds

- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
For Topping:

Instructions
- Prepare the Brownie Base: In a food processor, pulse the almonds and walnuts until finely chopped. Add the dates, cocoa powder, chia seeds, hemp seeds, flaxseed meal, and sea salt. Process until the mixture starts to come together and looks crumbly.
- Add the almond butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup if using. Pulse again until the mixture forms a sticky dough.
