“So, with a partially stocked pantry, I perused a few paleo brownie recipes, and came up with this modification. It is quick, simple, can be substituted to use different nut or seed butters, more or less sweetner and whatever kind of chocolate chips or chocolate bar pieces you like… and you probably have most everything you need in the kitchen already.”

Cashew Butter
Cashew butter is a food spread made from raw or roasted cashews. It is rich and creamy in flavour and when stored the oils and solids separate easily requiring it to be mixed before each use.[1] It is recommended to store the cashew butter in the refrigerator after the first use to prevent it from going rancid.
Cashew butter is high in protein, unsaturated fats and B vitamins that help to boost metabolism, increase skin and muscle tone, enhance the immune and nervous system, and promote cellular health.[2]
In one tablespoon of unsalted cashew butter there is 94 calories, 12 percent of the daily value of fat and 8 percent of the daily value of saturated fat. However, it contains less fat than most other types of nuts
