  • 1/4 cup Mint Brownie MuscleEgg egg whites
  • 3 heaped tablespoons Buff Bake "Cookie" Almond Butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 60 drops Double Chocolate Sweet Leaf Stevia

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and coat a muffin tin with non stick spray.
Step 2
Combine all brownie ingredients (EXCEPT chocolate chips) in a food processor. Blend until smooth.
Step 3
Stir in chocolate chips and divide batter evenly into muffin tin.
Step 4
Bake for 12-15 minutes, remove from oven. Using another muffin tin or the bottom of a narrow glass (this worked best for me), press brownies down to create a "bowl". Let cool completely.
Step 5
Prepare filling by combining greek yogurt, cheesecake mix, stevia, almond milk, extract, and food coloring (optional).
Step 6
Fill each brownie with pudding mixture and top with chopped mints.
