BROWNIE MIX-BLACK BEAN BROWNIES
You won't believe how chocolate-y and moist these brownies are. I like to make them in mini muffin cups with mini foil cupcake liners. Dust them with powdered sugar and you have a decadent treat with the benefit of more protein, more fiber, and fewer fat calories.

- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly grease a 20 x 30cm brownie tin and line with baking parchment. Blitz the beans and vanilla, 1/2 tsp salt and 2 eggs with a stick blender until completely smooth.
- Put the butter and sugar in a bowl with the cocoa and remaining eggs, and beat with an electric whisk until creamy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 11- by 18-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly oil with canola oil spray.
- Melt the chocolate and butter in a glass bowl in the microwave for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on high. Stir with a spoon to melt the chocolate completely. Place the beans, 1/2 cup of the walnuts, the vanilla extract, and a couple of spoonfuls of the melted chocolate mixture into the bowl of a food processor. Blend about 2 minutes, or until smooth. The batter should be thick and the beans smooth. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the remaining 1/2 cup walnuts, remaining melted chocolate mixture, coffee substitute, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, with an electric mixer beat the eggs until light and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the agave nectar and beat well. Set aside.
- Add the bean/chocolate mixture to the coffee/chocolate mixture. Stir until blended well. Add the egg mixture, reserving about 1/2 cup. Mix well. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 1/2 cup egg mixture until light and fluffy. Drizzle over the brownie batter. Use a wooden toothpick to pull the egg mixture through the batter, creating a marbled effect. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the brownies are set. Let cool in the pan completely before cutting into squares. (They will be soft until refrigerated.)
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your brownies. Choose dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%, and use fresh, roasted black beans.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the brownies until they are set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
Conclusion:
Chocolate toffee black bean brownies are a delicious and healthy twist on a classic dessert. They are made with black beans, which add protein and fiber, and they are sweetened with maple syrup and honey. These brownies are also gluten-free and dairy-free, making them a great option for people with food allergies or sensitivities. Give them a try today!
