hey everyone and welcome back to my channel and welcome to new video in
today's video I'm sharing with you some delicious healthy desserts that are easy
to make and they're just so decadent and yummy and so so good if you haven't

future videos from me and I'm actually including a bonus recipe in this video
that I'm gonna be sharing on my Instagram so if you head over there you
get another dessert and I'm gonna show you in the video but basically they're
like little turtle bites filled with caramel and pecans and chocolate and
they're delicious so head over there to get that recipe so
let's go ahead and get into the healthy desserts so the first thing we are
making are these almond butter swirl brownies they are so fudgy so I'm
starting off with some sweet potato and avocado and the sweet potato adds some
nice complex carbs and then the avocado adds some nice healthy fats which helps
to decrease your LDL or your bad cholesterol and increase your good
cholesterol so you blend those two together so we get something nice and
smooth we don't want any chunks in our brownies of either avocado or sea potato
so blend it until it's nice and smooth and then I'm adding in the cocoa or
cacao you can use either because we're cooking it you don't need to use raw
cacao but I only had raw cacao and it's full of regret antioxidants and it's
good at also regulating your blood pressure I'm adding in an egg as well as
the maple syrup which I find a lot of people don't know actually has a lot of
trace minerals in it and also antioxidants so just stir that together
until we get a nice even brownie batter it comes together really easily and I
wanted to use ingredients that I thought most of you guys had at home so no weird
flowers or anything like that so it's something really simple I'm adding in a
little bit of vanilla extract along with some baking soda stirring that in and
then I'm putting it into a 9-inch pan you can use a square one I just didn't
have a square one so I'm using a round one and then you're just going to spread
it evenly along the sides as you guys can see it's not a super thick batter so
it spreads nice and evenly and nice and we're gonna get a nice rich fudgy
brownie meat with good simple whole ingredients that are really great for
you next up I melted it down with some almond butter and I'm putting some
spoonfuls because this is a trick and to how to create that really nice swirl you
make spoonfuls like this and then you just take a knife and you run the knife
through these circles of your nut butter and you put it through the batter like
this so you kind of just keep going until you're happy with your swirl you
can do any kind of nut or seed butter here or you can totally leave it out but
I think this really elevates the brownies and makes them extra special
after you bake them at 350 for half an hour you have your wonderfully a fudgy
delicious swirl brownies these are going to be so good for a sweet treat but
they're loaded with such great healthy fats all right so once your brownies are
done and out of the oven they are gonna be wonderfully fudgy learn more of fudge
you Brown me than a cakey brownie but anyways let's go ahead and have a taste
so excited Oh hmm show them they're wonderfully fudgy without being too
sweet and I love the almond butter swirl on the top you could definitely do any
kind of nut or seed butter my hazelnut one would be good too it's so delicious
and fudgy it's the perfect treat I'm so happy with these turned out they're
definitely gonna be gone very sick all right guys next up or making it these
mint chocolate cups which if you're familiar with the eating evolved ones
they're kind of a spin on that so I'm taking some coconut butter I love
coconut butter because it's full of lauric acid which means it's going to be
really great for your immune system and it also helps to increase your
metabolism while that's melting down on our double boiler on the stove I'm
taking some cacao to make some nice raw paleo chocolate you guys have seen me
make this a bunch of times before but the ratios will be down in the
description box and like I've said raw cacao really great antioxidants for it
especially when it's raw a little bit of maple syrup for a touch of sweetness mix
that together and then I'm taking my silicone molds and a teaspoon
measurement and just putting a little bit on the bottom and kind of spreading
it so that it covers the whole bottom of silicone mold these were super
inexpensive form IKEA I think you got 12 for like a dollar ninety-nine they're
also on Amazon I suggest investing in silicon cups because I swear I use them
at least every week if not more they're really handy for making desserts
once your coconut butter is soft and melted I'm using a spoon to put about a
teaspoon into each of it and then you're going to be pressing that down so it
kind of sits in the middle of the chocolate and then with the leftover I'm
putting a little bit on the top as well and kind of swirling it once you leave
them in the freezer for about 15 minutes they will be done and you have these
wonderfully easy peppermint swirled coconut butter cups
that are super refreshing and make a great treat so once your cups are done
that they will look like this and you can just store them in the freezer
that's what I would do and then pull them out when you want them but let's go
ahead and have a taste oh they're so good and so refreshing because of the
mint if you've tried the eating evolved mint coconut butter cups these are very
similar to that they're the perfect little treat to have plus they have
healthy fats in them not too sweet just I'm in love with all these desserts guys
and lastly I'm showing you guys one of my favorite quick desserts that I make
all the time so I'm starting off with some coconut milk guys coconut milk is
so good it's full of nice healthy fats that help to support the digestive
lining in your gut and help to rebuild it and it also improves the insulin
response in your body so it's really good I would suggest getting the full
fat not the light don't be scared of full fat guys it's so so good for you
and you literally just take your beater and you beat it up until it's like a
whipped cream consistency it's super super easy I'm taking some fresh local
strawberries a heaping spoon a spoonful of that and some of the leftover paleo
chocolate I will leave ratios down below super easy dessert it's I just had her
right now it was delicious and now it was time for the taste test what I love
is that it's so easy to make this and you get like a little bit of decadence
but there's some fruit so let's have a taste
it's like a whipped cream chocolate and strawberry mm-hmm and he's just like
chocolate strawberries but the coconut whipped kind of gives it that whipped
cream feel but got healthy fats is gonna be satisfying
this has honestly been one of my go-to to healthy desserts for a long time now
so I'm really excited to share it with you guys I'm gonna dig in and have some
more so this is the bonus recipe it's kind of like a turtle bark filled with
caramel and pecans and chocolate so let's have a taste of this - mmm the
caramel is the perfect consistency it's not too hard but it like pulls away a
little bit of chocolate with the healthy nuts like pecans
you definitely want to head over and get the recipe for this because it's
something you can easily keep in the fridge and then just have a piece when
you need a little something so I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you did
