Directions

Sauce: 
Place ½ cup fresh raspberries and coconut oil in a pot over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.  Stir until raspberries have broken down and you’ve created a sauce.  Take away from heat and whisk in 2 tablespoons of maple syrup or honey. Set aside.

Brownies:
Next combine wet brownie ingredients in mixing bowl.  Add in dry ingredients and stir until incorporated.  Gently fold in chocolate chips and raspberries.  Pour batter into 8”×8” (20.25 cm x 20.25cm) or 9”x9” glass baking pan greased with coconut oil.

Drizzle raspberry sauce over the top and swirl into batter with a knife so it’s barely under the surface.  Bake on lower oven rack for approx. 25 minutes. 
Don’t over-bake this brownie.  It should still be a little soft on the inside. Let it cool for 15 minutes before cutting into squares.
