Chocolate Collagen Cups
Rich, creamy, and packed with beauty-boosting Chocolate Collagen Peptides, this treat will have your sweet tooth thanking you, while supporting your hair, skin, nails, and joints.
Ingredients:
- 5 ounces semi-sweet, sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1 scoop Live Conscious Chocolate Collagen Peptides
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons of heavy cream
- Strawberries or whip cream, for garnish, if desired.
Instructions:
- Set out 4 small bowls, ramekins, or little pots on a tray (these will be heading to the fridge later).
- Toss your chocolate chips, Live Conscious Chocolate Collagen Peptides, egg, vanilla, and a pinch of sea salt into a blender. Pulse a few times to break up the chocolate.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat the heavy cream until it bubbles up (about 1 ½ minutes). Note: Make sure the bowl is roomy; cream likes to bubble when it gets hot.
- Blend the chocolate mix on low for 15 seconds, then slowly add in the hot cream through the lid. Once it’s all in, crank the blender to high and let it whirl for 1 minute.
- Pour into your small bowls, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least an hour. Garnish with strawberries or whipped cream.

Decadent Caramel Brownies
These aren’t your average brownies. With the dreamy combo of caramel and chocolate, plus Beyond Brew Caramel Macchiato’s 6-in-1 mushroom blend, you’ll indulge in flavor and treat your body to balanced gut health and energy. Now that’s what we call dessert with benefits.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour

- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or butter

- 2/3 cup sugar or granulated erythritol
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Caramel sauce for drizzle
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 °F. Grease an 8‑inch pan or line it with parchment.
- In a large bowl, mix all ingredients until smooth, then spread evenly on the pan. Use a second piece of parchment to gently press the batter flat if needed.
