    I made that recipe a few months ago. Turned out surprisingly quite well. Moist and chocolatey. My dad loved it. The black bean brownie recipe that is.

    just a thought - about the oatmeal choc cake
    you could probably use applesauce and/or yogurt instead of oil. (just sayin')--experiment,lol.
