Black Bean Brownies
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."

I love that you can use beans to make this recipe. I never knew you could use any bean or veggie in desserts until my mom made a chocolate zucchini cake. I couldn't even tell because the cake was so moist. What a neat way to get some more good nutrients in your diet and have something sweet.
