Dark Chocolate Brownies w/ Espresso Balsamic Ganache
For Ganache:
1 1/2 Tbsp Espresso Balsamic Vinegar
1 1/2 Tbsp Maple syrup
1 1/2 Tbsp Cocoa powder
2 Tbsps Coconut oil (solid)
Whisk the balsamic, maple syrup, and cocoa powder together in a small bowl until no lumps remain.
On medium-low heat, in a small sauce pan, allow the coconut oil to fully melt. Once melted, add the espresso/chocolate mixture.
Whisk continuously until they are fully combined and turn up to medium-high heat. Continue to whisk for several minutes until it bubbles. Whisk gently for 2 minutes, then take off heat and allow to cool.
Before it begins to set (still warm), pour it over the cooled and baked brownies. Set in the fridge until the ganache solidifies.
Once hardened, cut into 6-9 pieces, and enjoy!
