Aero chocolate was one of my faves when I was little! Even though it’s basically just chocolate that contains bubbles, there was just something so good about it 😂 Anyone else an aero bar fan too? 👋🏼
Anyways, I was feeling very creative so in the spirit of #veganuary , I decided to create these healthy vegan “Aero” inspired protein brownies!
With just 100 cal per brownie and 6g plant protein – you guys need to save this to try!
Here is the recipe:

Ingredients
- BROWNIE BASE:
- ✅3/4 cup self-raising flour

- ✅1/4 cup cocoa powder
- ✅1/2 cup non-dairy yoghurt (can sub for applesauce or nut butter )
- ✅1/2 cup granulated sweetener (can sub for 3/4 cup sugar)
- ✅1 cup non-dairy milk
- “BUBBLY” MOUSSE LAYER:
- ✅3 cups rice bubbles
- ✅2 tablespoons vegan chocolate protein powder
- ✅50g non-dairy chocolate
- ✅1 cup non-dairy yoghurt (I used almond)
- *Optional: 1 teaspoon mint essence if you want to make it mint aero!
Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, fan-forced. Line a square baking tin with non-stick paper
- 2. Make the BROWNIE BASE: In a bowl, combine all the ingredients until no lumps of flour remain. Transfer this to the lines tin and bake for 25-28 minutes until a knife inserted comes out slightly dirty
- 3. Remove from the oven and pop this in the freezer to cook for 30 mins
- 4. Make the “BUBBLY” MOUSSE LAYER: Melt the chocolate, then stir in the yoghurt & protein powder until no lumps remain. Fold through the rice bubbles. Transfer this layer evenly over the top of the brownie base.
- 5. Return to the freezer for another 30 mins before slicing & serving
- **Storage tips: in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or in the freezer for months!
