These fudgy, filling and fiber-rich brownies are fabulous! We have to be honest, we were really skeptical trying this recipe. After all, how can they NOT taste like black beans? It doesn’t make any sense, but the proof is in the brownie!
Bonus: They are ridiculously easy to make and only require about 5-7 minutes of prep time!

DIRECTIONS:
- Empty brownie mix into a high-power blender.
