½cupagave syrup or maple syrup
1/4cupdairy-free milklike almond milk, cashew milk, and coconut cream (if leaving out the protein powder, use less milk; start with 2 tablespoons milk and go from there)

Instructions
Mix the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl or food processor, add the almond flour, protein powder, and cocoa powder. Stir well until combined.
Blend the wet ingredients: Using a mixer or food processor, mix in the agave syrup, peanut butter, and ¼ cup of dairy-free milk. If you’re skipping the protein powder, use less milk. Start with 2 tablespoons and adjust until you get a thick dough.
Check the dough consistency: If the mixture is too thick, add more milk a tablespoon at a time. You want a firm, cookie dough-like consistency, but not too crumbly. If it’s crumbly, just add a splash more milk.
Press into a pan: Line an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, then press the brownie mixture evenly into the pan. Freeze for 30 minutes to an hour.
Make the ganache: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dairy-free chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Pour the melted chocolate over the brownie layer, spreading it out smoothly.
Add toppings: Decorate with vegan rainbow candy-coated chocolate chips or sprinkles, and refrigerate for about 15 minutes until the ganache sets.
Slice and serve: Once the ganache is firm, cut into squares and enjoy your cosmic creation!
