In a microwave safe bowl or stovetop, melt your nut butter with sticky sweetener until combined. Pour into the dry brownie mixture and mix until combined. Using a tablespoon, add liquid of choice until a thick batter remains. Pour the batter into the lined baking tray and press firmly in place. Refrigerate.
