brownie batter dessert bowl
ingredients:
1 medium sweet potato, slow roasted and chilled (details below)
2 heaping tbsp creamy salted peanut butter
1 tbsp cacao powder
1 tbsp powdered peanut butter (i used a chocolate one)
chocolate chips for mixing in
directions:
to slow roast your sweet potato, set the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. you don’t have to do anything to the potatoexcept place it directly on the sheet! note that you’ll want to bake this for at least 2 hours (i always do 2 and a half), so plan accordingly. i like to do this at night after dinner while i clean up the kitchen!
after an hour in the oven, make sure to flip the potato for the remainder of baking time. it will start to release liquid, and this is good! after 2.5 hours the potato should be perfectly soft. slice in half and let cool completely before storing in an air tight container in the fridge.
once the potato has cooled overnight, add it to a small bowl and take the skin off. add the peanut butter, cacao, and powdered peanut butter. mix thoroughly until well combined (takes me about 2 minutes). stir through chocolate chips and enjoy!
Question, do you think steaming the sweet potato would work? It’d be much quicker!
Do you have to keep the sweet potato overnight?
