Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line the bottom and at least two of the sides of an 8x8 brownie pan with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl mix the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, and date sugar.
Add the dry ingredients: cocoa powder, almond flour, buckwheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Stir in the chocolate chips and pretzels.
Press into the prepared pan. The mixture will be thick and not pourable - you'll need to use your hands or the back of a measuring cup to press the mixture into the pan.
Bake for 20 minutes then let cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
Melt the chocolate for the topping. Then arrange a layer of pretzels on top of the brownies and pour the chocolate over the pretzels.
Place in the freezer for 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Then slice using a serrated knife. Enjoy!
