Protein Packed Super Fudgy Brownies

• 30 ounces, weight Canned Black Beans, Drained
• 4 whole Eggs, Beaten
• 1 cup Oil (cocount, Grapeseed, Or Canola)
• 1 cup Sugar
• 3/4 cups Cocoa Powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1 cup Smooth Peanut Butter
• 1/2 cups Semi-sweet Morsels

1. Note: make sure that the beans are unseasoned!
2. In a blender, puree the black beans. Add the eggs. Add the oil.
3. In a bowl, mix the sugar, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
4. Add the bean mixture to the dry mixture and blend. This is a wet batter.
5. All of this can be done in one bowl with a stick blender.
6. Pour into a 9 x 13 baking dish and bake for 30-45 minutes at 350 degrees. It usually takes about 35 minutes, but these will overcook quickly! Remove from the oven when the center is *just* set.
7. Meanwhile, microwave the peanut butter. Add the chocolate morsels. Frost the warm brownies. Enjoy!
8. Variation: add morsels to the batter.
9. For a non-gluten free version, a couple of tablespoons of flour does provide a little lift.
