Steam the Brussels sprouts for about 10 minutes until they are soft enough to get easily pierced by a fork. Cool down for 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350 F (170 C) and line a 7x7 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Add the steamed Brussels sprouts, dates, milk of choice, nut butter, and vanilla to the food processor and process until completely smooth.
Add the oat flour, cacao powder, baking powder, and sea salt and run for a few more seconds to combine. Stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the lined pan and bake for 45-50 minutes until the top is set with a few cracks and it starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. Leave the brownies to completely cool.
For the Chocolate Ganache: Melt the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips. Mix in the almond butter and stir until completely smooth.
Once the brownies are cool, pour over the chocolate frosting on top and place in the fridge for about 2 hours until the frosting sets. Cut into 16 squares and enjoy. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
