I found this recipe on the internet:
Black Bean Sugar Free Brownies
Makes 16 brownies (approx. 1 1/2 per serving)
c`c`
2 cups cooked black beans drained(you can substitute with 1 can of black beans)
4 eggs
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp vanilla
1 cup sugar subsitute(I used Splenda for Baking)
3 tbsp cocoa powder(I used Hersheys)
1/4 tsp salt
walnut halves/pecan halves(optional)
non stick cooking spray

Method:
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray an 8″ x 8″ baking pan with non stickcooking spray.

In a blender or food processor, combine the black beans, eggs, oil, vanilla, sugar substitute, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Process until smooth.

Scrape the batter into the baking pan and arrange the nuts in even rows, 4 across and 4 down. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cut into 16 squares with a nut piece in the center of each.

I think some of the recipes are easier than that. some I see where they just mix a box of brownie mix with the can of black beans..but not sure they make sugar free brownie mix..maybe they do...

Just tried the recipe in this thread. I had to make them in muffin form, since I don't have the right size pan. They taste ok, not great, but ok. They'll do for a chocolate fix later, and they are pretty filling thanks to the black beans. However, the flavor actually reminds me a lot of those Slim Fast shakes I tried 15 years ago. I had forgotten what they tasted like until I tried these brownies. There's just something not quite right about it.

But the bigger issue is I entered the recipe into MFP, and it's way more calories than the website says it is. It's closer to 70 calories a serving. Still much better than a "real" brownie, but not as healthy as the website suggests.
