I love that black beans are used to make this healthy edible brownie batter. Beans are full of healthy fiber and protein and help reduce blood sugar spikes. I try to eat plenty of beans every day and using them in desserts is such a fun way to eat them. No one will suspect that this is made with beans! Give this one a try!
