Method
For the Bars:
Step 1
Spray a 9-inch round nonstick cake pan with cooking spray and preheat oven to 325°F. (If you want to make the bars egg-shaped, you will need to use a pan with egg-shaped slots.)
Step 2
For the brownie layer: In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas. Add cocoa powder, nut butter, and baking powder. Add nut milk and mix until combined, set aside.
Step 3
Press the Immaculate Baking Gluten-Free Chocolate Chunk Cookie Dough into the pan to form one layer. Spread the brownie batter evenly on top of the cookie dough layer.
Step 4
Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before frosting.
For the Frosting:
Step 1
Using a whisk or an electric mixer, combine oil, melted butter, almond flavoring, hot water and salt, beating until smooth.
Step 2
Add powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time. Slowly add evaporated milk a few tablespoons at a time until frosting reaches desired thickness.
Step 3
Frost cooled bars and enjoy!
