Healthy Double Chocolate Chip Brownies

"Healthy" and "brownie" in the same sentence...need I say more? These brownies were so delicious and moist, you'd never know that they are egg-free, dairy-free, grain-free, and gluten-free. It's no secret I have a major sweet tooth, and these more than satisfied my craving for something chocolately and sweet.

Ingredients:
-1 cup nut butter -- I used Peanut Butter & Co. Dark Chocolate Dreams
-3/4 cup pumpkin puree
-1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
-1/3 cup baking stevia (or agave, honey, or pure maple syrup)
-3 tbs unsweetened cocoa powder
-1/4 cup chocolate chips of choice -- I used Enjoy Life Chocolate Mini Chips
-1 tsp baking soda
-1/2 tsp baking powder

Directions: Preheat oven to 350F. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Spread the batter evenly into a baking pan coated well with non-stick spray (the batter should be pretty thick). Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool before cutting, and store in the fridge.
