1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously oil pan with coconut oil or avocado oil; you can use a muffin pan, mini muffin pan, or 9x13; I personally will use a 9x13 pan next time, just to control the portion size better.

2. Mix all ingredients until batter is smooth.

3. Bake for 20-25 minutes; all ovens vary, bake until firm to the touch.

4. While brownies bake, make the frosting.

5. For the frosting, combine all ingredients together in a bowl. Mix until smooth.

6. Allow brownies to cool before frosting.
