Once of my favorite combinations is brownie and cheesecake. Since I’m dairy free I’ve had to get creative with the cheesecake portion of my recipes. I absolutely love using almonds (or cashews) to make “cream cheese.” It works perfectly in sweet dishes and I’m starting to experiment using it in savory dishes. I know some of you are not dairy free so cream cheese should work in this recipe (though I didn’t try it). I wanted to whip up a St. Patrick’s Day dessert that had some green in it…festive, right? Well I didn’t want to add a bunch of dye to the recipe so I decided to use a natural ingredient to add the green color without changing the taste of the brownies. These were tested on a few people and I can assure you that you will not be able to taste the secret ingredient.
Can you guess what the secret ingredient is?
