Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium heatproof bowl, soak the Medjool dates in warm water for 10 minutes to soften them. Drain and transfer the dates to a food processor.
Add the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract to the food processor with the dates. Blend until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the wet mixture from the food processor to the dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined. If using, stir in the dark chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey kick.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, spreading it into the corners with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely before slicing into 9 squares.
Enjoy these delicious sugar-free brownies as a snack or dessert!
