Receta Brownie Cake with Mocha Almond Fudge Cream
I actually made this cake a long time ago, but just found the recipe. I had purchased these cute molds and wanted to try something new. If you don't have access to this type of mold, you can use the cake recipe as a crust and fill with the Mocha Almond Cream, but you'll have to play around with amounts, and may have some extra brownie cake batter - SHUCKS! So create some little brownies and eat as is or dehydrate for a few hours.

Mocha Almond Fudge Cheesecake Filling
Blend all ingredients except for cacao nibs and psyllium husk until very creamy.
Add psyllium husk powder and blend well. Add cacao nibs and pulse process, leaving it gritty for the "crunch"
Mixture should be VERY THICK at this point. If not, add more psyllium husk powder or ground chia. Taste for sweetness and adjust. Work quickly once pysllium is added, as mixture will start to thicken.
Pour into spring form pan over cake and garnish with cacao nibs and/or chopped nuts. Refrigerate several hours or overnight. Remove from pan and serve.
Option
Use mini cheesecake pans with removable bottoms.
Press a thin layer of Cake mixture into bottom of each cup. Place in freezer for one hour.
Spoon Mocha Almond Fudge Cream into cups. Sprinkle with cacao nibs and refrigerate several hours or overnight. Frozen, these taste like open faced Ice Cream Sandwiches. THESE ARE AMAZING!!! Freeze remaining portions and defrost as needed.
