Brownies

  • 12

Ingredients

  • • Nonstick cooking spray
  • • 1 1/2 cups canned black beans,
  • rinsed and drained
  • • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • • 1 tablespoon espresso powder
  • • 3/4 cup egg substitute
  • • 2 tablespoons low-calorie sugar-free
  • chocolate syrup, such as Walden Farms
  • • 2 tablespoons reduced-fat sour
  • cream, such as Breakstone’s
  • • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • • 24 packets Truvia (84 g) or 8
  • tablespoons granulated Splenda
  • • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8x8-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.

Combine the beans, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and egg substitute in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl halfway through.

Add the chocolate syrup, sour cream, butter, Truvia, and vanilla. Process until all of the ingredients are combined, about 1 minute.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes, turning the dish halfway through the baking time. A toothpick inserted in the center will come out with soft batter clinging to it.

Let the brownies cool completely in the baking dish on a wire rack. Then cut into 12 squares and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.
