Belinda says:

Thanks Lynda, that’s great, will give the cacao butter a try 🙂

Belinda says:

Just wondering if there is a good substitute for coconut oil ?

Hi Belinda you could try melting Cacao butter and using this instead of coconut oil. Or if you do not mind adding more natural sugar to this recipe soaked medjool dates would work.

Janine says:

What would the carb count be for 1 of these?

Guy Lawrence says:

HI Janine. We don’t have the carb count. The carb content will depend on the size of your slices. If you want to know the carb content, I’d suggest you count the overall carb content of the size of the brownie you make, and then divide into the number of slices you want to meet your carb needs.

Hope that helps.
