Black Bean Brownies
"Lower the calories at the same time you are packing in more protein into these tasty, fudgy brownies. You won't be able to tell you added a secret ingredient. Makes for a perfect and healthy after school snack. My children had no idea I tinkered with their favorite chocolate treat. Add it with berries, top with powdered sugar or just eat it alone. These moist treats will not disappoint. A quick treat to whip up. Only a few minutes to prepare and 25 to bake."
