The ingredients are:
  • 1 box (18.4 ounce) brownie mix (classic brownie mix, I used Pillsbury Chocolate Fudge)
  • 1 can (15 ounce) black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (you can use milk or dark chocolate chips; or a mix, I prefer dark)
  • 1/2 up chopped walnuts (fine chopped - optional)
  • 1 cup water
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Beans ... Add the beans and water to a blender; and, puree until smooth.

  • Step 2: Brownie Mix ... Add the pureed beans to a bowl; along with 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips, and the brownie mix. Mix until well combined and smooth. Pour into a lightly greased 13x9" pan, with a nonstick spray; or lined with parchment paper. I prefer the parchment paper. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips.

  • Step 3: Options ... You can add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts to the mix, before adding it to the pan.

  • Step 4: Bake ... In a 350 degree preheated oven, middle shelf, for 25-30. Test by sticking a toothpick of knife in the center of the pan. If it comes out clean, the batter is set. Remove and cool before cutting.

  • Step 5: Finishing ... I like a dusting of powdered sugar.

  • Step 6: Serve and ENJOY! ... Simple and delicious.
