Ingredients

  • •1 spray Nonstick cooking spray
  • •1½ cups black beans
  • •½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • •1 tablespoon espresso powder
  • •¾ cup egg substitute
  • •2 tablespoons sugar free chocolate syrup
  • •2 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream
  • •24 packets Truvia
  • •1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Spray an 8x8-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.

    5 min

  2. 2.

    Combine the beans, cocoa powder, espresso powder and egg, substitute in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl halfway through.

    2 min

  3. 3.

    Add the chocolate syrup, sour cream, butter, Truvia, and vanilla. Process until all of the ingredients are combined, about 1 minute.

    1 min

  4. 4.

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes, turning the dish halfway through the baking time. A toothpick inserted in the center will come out with soft batter clinging to it.

    30 min

  5. 5.

    Let the brownies cool completely in the baking dish on a wire rack. Then cut into 12 squares and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.
