Ingredients

1 15 ounce can Black Beans (rinsed and drained)

2 Eggs or 2 Flax Eggs (2 heaping tablespoons Flaxseed Meal + 6 tablespoons water)

3 Tablespoons Coconut Oil melted (or oil of your choice)

3/4 cup Cocoa Powder

1/4 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

1/2 cup Sugar

1 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder

 

Directions

1.    Preheat oven to 350 degrees

2. Add all ingredients into food processor to puree (about 3 minutes) scraping sides if necessary. 

3.     If batter appears thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water and pulse again.  Batter should appear like less thick than chocolate frosting, but not runny.

4.     Spread in 8”x8” (or round) well greased glass pan.

4.     Optional: top each with mini-chocolate chips or crushed nuts.

5.     Bake for 20-26 minutes or until tops are dry and edges pull away from sides.

 Serve warm with Ice Cream, Frozen Yogurt or Fruit.
