Ingredients
Prep
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper.
- Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the vegan butter until it’s liquid and hot. Pour the vegan butter into a large bowl, add in the chocolate, either white or dark, and stir until all of the chocolate has melted.
- Add in the sugar, sour cream, vegan red food coloring, vanilla, and whisk until combined.
- Sift in the dry ingredients, and whisk again until all ingredients are completely combined and there are no clumps of flour.
- Pour the brownie batter into your prepared pan, and bake the brownies for 40-43 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer wobbly.
- Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to fully cool before frosting.
- When ready to frost, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the vegan butter until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Then slowly add in the powdered sugar in 1 cup increments, beating together until mixed. Add in the cashewmilk yogurt last, and cream together until fluffy.
- Spread the frosting on top of the vegan red velvet brownies.
- Slice and enjoy!
