First, grease a 7×7-inch brownie pan with melted coconut butter and line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on all sides and preheat your oven at 180℃.
02
Melt the dark chocolate and coconut butter together and allow to cool completely.
03
In a separate large bowl, add 1 egg at a time and mix properly using a hand whisk.
04
When the mixture is a little creamy add your sea salt, the vanilla extract, and the cooled chocolate and coconut butter mixture.
05
Mix everything well. The batter will have a thicker consistency at this point.
06
Finally, sift the flour and raw cacao powder into the bowl and carefully fold them into the mixture using a silicone spatula.
07
Now pour the batter into the prepared baking pan then gently shake and tap the tin couple of times to spread the batter evenly. add your chocolate chunks and crushed hazelnuts. Bake it in preheated oven for about 30 minutes.

When your brownie is baked take it out of the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes. Now slice them into roughly 9 squares and enjoy your warm fudgy brownies.
