    I was hoping it was eggless I made brownies that were made from black beans it was for a boy who was gluten free and my hubby doesn't eat egg he is a vegeterian. I laughed when I saw people eating them.!!

    I found this on another site. Maybe this would help?

    "Flax Seed makes a great gluten free/vegan egg substitute: 1 Tablespoons finely ground flax seed meal + 3 tablespoons water whipped until it is the consistency of egg; equals one egg. This works well if the egg in the recipe is for the purpose of binding the other ingredients together. If a recipe calls for egg to leaven (rise), add 1/2 teaspoon baking powder."

    I recently tried the black bean brownie thing and it worked out great, so I'm definitely going to try this!

    I'm intrigued, What is the black bean brownie?

    I use http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php to figure calories. I figured on 15 oz garbanzo beans; hopefully that's the right size can!

    Calorie Count says:
    1 entire recipe = 664g

    Sodium: 277
    Total Carbs: 240.4
    Dietary Fiber: 74
    Sugars: 110.3
    Protein: 103.6

    If you cut one whole cake into eight servings:
    Serving size: 83 grams
    Calories: 276
    Total Fat: 7.8
    Saturated fat: 3
    Cholesterol: 26 mg

    You can copy and paste an entire recipe into Calorie Count. It takes a little bit to get used to, but after you've done it a few times, you realize how to adjust the recipe to fit them, and it's super easy. AND it gives you a whole lot more information than MFP does!

    WOW!!! Thank you

    I love chocolate anything so I will definitely have to give this a try. Plus it is always fun to surprise people with something they would not normally eat.

    Alright, people. After reading through and hoping someone would say, "I tried it, and it's AMAZING!" I realized nobody has tried it. But, my friends, I have all the ingredients. And so here I go. Off to bake a very strange sounding garbanzo bean cake. I'll report back as soon as I taste it. :)

    Put it in the recipe builder and figure it out based on how many servings you want.
