Guinness Beer Brownies with Soy Butter Fudge

Ok.. Ok... This might sound totally crazy, but if you like Guinness Beer and if you like brownies, then you will LOVE Guinness Beer brownies!!! :) They are AMAZING! I could eat the entire batch in one sitting. Wow!! They are super easy to make too! 

These brownies are also topped with soy butter fudge, however if you do not have anyone in your house with a peanut or tree nut allergy, then you can use peanut butter. My son is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts, so we do not keep any peanut or tree nut products in the house. 

Here's what you need:

2 cups flour
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup coconut sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup coconut oil
8oz. Guinness Extra Stout Beer

What to do:

1. First, mix the dry ingredients (flour, coconut sugar, salt, baking soda, chocolate chips) together in a large bowl.

2. Then, add the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla, and coconut oil. Mix well.

Note: You might need to melt the coconut oil beforehand.

3. Measure out 8oz. of Guinness Extra Stout Beer. (Do not include the foam.)

4. Add the beer into the bowl and mix well.

5. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.

6. Pour the brownie mix into an 8x8 pan that is lightly greased.

7. Bake for about 25-28 minutes.

8. Cool and add soy butter fudge on top.

(Note: See recipe below the picture.)
