I know this is a bit premature, but I had to type this before I get busy in the house & forget. I just finished making the brownies. I reserved just a little before putting in the fridge so my husband and I could taste it. I let him go first & after a few seconds he said "Wow. Those are REALLY good." Then I ate my little piece. OMG! I'd read everyone's comments about how amazing these are, but until I tried it for myself I had no idea. Holy moly, these things are unbelievable! I am making a batch for an elderly man I work with because I told him about them & he gave me money to buy ingredients to make some for him & his wife. I think they'll love them. I'm hooked! And they haven't even chilled in the fridge yet. :) I can't wait to share them with my parents, in-laws and friends. So excited! Thank you for sharing this recipe. It's pure, chocolate-y genius.

You are my hero. A lot of processed food have been making me sick but I love chocolate. I can't wait to try this, thank you so much!!!

Hello! Would this work without coconut? Or is there something I could use in place of it? I'm hoping to try out this recipe without having to run to the store for coconut :)

The best raw brownies I have ever tasted! Add the frosting and it's even better.

Absolutely works without the coconut! Just made a batch and totally forgot to add it. These are amazingly delicious! Sill definitely be making again, this time with the coconut.

I didn't have all the right ingredients so I substituted with almonds instead of pecans and used coconut oil instead of coconut and it was delicious! Cant wait to see what it tastes like with pecans!

These brownies are truly unbelievable! You have to make them to believe it!!!

Hi dear,

No one has mentioned this, but isn't combining nuts and dates a no-no for digestion?do you follow food combining?

Very excited to make these brownies! I don't have a blender can you give me any suggestions how I could do it? Many thanks x

Oh Lordy! My first raw food recipe...very, very good! Thanks Rawtarian! Can't wait to try some others.

Yuck a giant cliff bar

Hi, just wondering what you would class as 'high speed' for a blender and food processor? I need to buy a food processor. I do have a blender but not sure of its speed. Thanks, ZOE

I just made the recipe and I absolutely love it! I didn't put any cocoa powder though (which I guess is the one ingredient that makes it a brownie) and I bet with that it probably tastes even better. Instead of spreading it on a brownie sheet I made little bolls and put them on a serving plate wrapped on top with plastic sheet and put them in the fridge. That way they are the perfect size to pop in your moth and enjoy this amazing raw goodness.

I just made this... sorta. I don't have a food processor yet (I will) so I made it with my hands. Also don't have raw cacao powder so I used cocoa powder. (I'm trying). The dates I used are sweet and soft. Everything else, just like you've got it. I tasted them before and after refrigerating and they are definately better cold. Mine didn't turn out think like the ones in your photo, though. They are flat. They come up off the pan about 1/4 inch. So I'm wondering. They're tasty cold, though. I think I'm going to roll them into balls and onto coconut flakes because they don't come off the pan easily and I'm guessing that's because I squished the dates with my hands, which made them too dense.

-Does the food processor make it so the dates aren't so dense, so that they're airier?
-Is there a noticeable taste difference between cocoa powder and raw cacao powder?

Thanks ;o)

oops. I rewrote that and forgot to edit. Sorry-

These brownies are exceptional. My husband and I are incorporating more raw foods in our diet. With recipes like this, it is super-easy! I made the first batch, and he's made several since then. Did I mention they are exceptional? ;) thank you SO much for sharing!

This is the first recipe here that I have tried. It's so yummy! I immediately recommended your site to a friend. Thanks so much!

These are SOOOO .....what can I say? Wonderful?! I Made them yesterday and they're already finished so I'm now making some more, but twice the amount I made yesterday. Your recipes really are brilliant, thanks so much ( I have one of my cats (Crispy) balanced on my shoulders as I write this and I'm standing up) Have a great day!

....seems we have a "budding" raw foodist in our midst. Wanted to let you know that our 5 year old grandson really likes this recipe as well! Well done!

I use a couple spoon filled in yogurt for a desert, great!

I should have read the comments before making the brownies. I'm just starting to look into raw diet. Even with the ingredients I used it was edible but bit too sweet. My first problem was that I could not find unsweetened coconut flakes, fresh dates or raw chocolate so after visiting 5 stores I gave up and used what they had. I have to find a healthier grocery store or maybe an ethnic store would carry fresh figs. I can almost imagine them tasting divine and since I am a stubbornly determined person I am going to make them again. Thanks, K.

You are The Rawetarian Goddess!!!! I just made a double batch of raw chocolate brownies with raw chocolate icing, and I am in heaven! For Lent this year,I gave up sugar (probably a good thing), and tonight, scraping the sides of my vitamix to get every last morsel of icing - ooh, heaven - I know I can do without that horrible white stuff. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Oh. My. Gosh! I made the brownies and the raw carrot cake to take to a party on the weekend, and they were the talk of the party! Way better cold, and SO rich! After tasting a bit while I was making them just to make sure they were coming along well, I was wowed by them. I think you made some converts at the party, too. All of your recipes are simple, easy and super tasty. I am so glad I found your site. Thank you SO much for all of your hard work!
