Recipe: Fudgy Black Bean Brownies

I've been using this healthy two-ingredient brownie recipe for two years now. It's full of protein, fiber, and it's absolutely delicious. It has an amazing fudgy texture to it, you won't get from making the brownies with the box directions. No one will EVER know there are beans inside!

Ingredients:

1 box brownie mix
1 (15 oz.) can black beans

Directions:

Open can of black beans, rinse well. Put beans back in can and add enough water to cover beans. Pour in blender or food processor and puree. Add puree to brownie mix, then bake according to package directions.

You DO NOT add the eggs or oil that the recipe calls for, JUST the black bean puree!

This is a different brownie recipe from one I posted earlier. This one is higher in fat than the other one, so it is tastier but less healthy.
