These brownies really are super simple to make. With an underlining hint of my three part mushroom blend of wildcrafted Chaga, Cordyceps and Lions Mane these mood elevating brownies are chewy, moist and packed with a rich chocolate flavour.
Mushrooms and chocolate I think just pair so well together! These brownies are not only perfect in their sweet earthy tones but are the perfect mood boosting and energy heightening treat!
I am not the world’s best baker. In fact I can't even remember the last time created a recipe that involved baking. What I will say is after tasting these adaptogenic mushroom brownies made using Sun Potions blend
of Chaga, Lions Mane and Cordyceps this weekend, it has inspired me to create more delicious baked adaptogen infused plant based desserts! So, watch this space as there is going to be a number of tasty, cooked desserts on their way before you have even made it through your first batch of these brownies…
