I'm going to be doing some baking tonight and added it into my diary. I'm never really sure how to cut up baked good. So I am just going to try to eat some, and figure it out later.
I do tend to binge at night, and if I don't get some help on eating these I can really go for the whole pan. Does anyone have any advice on my diary? I'm thinking I could have cut out the greek yogurt.

Also day one on my new diet plan!! Go me! So I don't care too much about the brownies if that is what you are thinking. its a great diet pill.

    I think your "dinner" will sort out the brownies juuuuuuust fine. They may even have negative calories when all is said and done.

    I love baking. I only do it on weeknights. I eat one or two when I cook them then the next morning I send them with the boyfriend off to work. His coworkers can get fat. You're welcome. Mwahahaha.

    If I leave them at my house then I'm like "Goddammit I spent a lot of time making these fackin cookies and I'm going to freakin' eat them!!!"

    Oh brownies are so good, why limit to just one a day? I agree, you should eat the entire pan and cut out some of those healthy things you had in the morning. The Alli would make it all come out okay in the end, and you'll end up with an amazing new paint job on the bathroom walls!

    Dr Oz: Black Bean Brownie Recipe
    Ingredients:

    15 oz canned black beans, rinsed and drained

    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

    1 tsp expresso powder

    3/4 cup liquid egg substitute

    3 tbsp whole wheat pastry flour

    3/4 cup agave nectar

    1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

    1 tsp vanilla extract

    Rocco & Dr Oz Brownie Recipe
    Directions:

    1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

    2. Spray an 8×8 baking dish with non-stick spray.

    3. Place the black beans, cocoa powder, egg substitute, espresso powder and flour in a food processor.

    4. Blend until the mixture has no lumps at all.

    5. Add the vanilla, agave and butter.

    6. Blend again until everything is fully mixed.

    7. Pour the brownie mix into the greased 8×8 pan and bake for 20 minutes.

    8. Also, make sure to turn the 8×8 baking pan halfway through.

    9. Turn the temperature down to 300 degrees and bake for another 5-8 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Be careful not to overcook the brownies either though!

    10. Let the brownies cool completely until they reach room temperature.

    11. Place the brownies in the fridge for 3 hours.

    12. Cut them into 12 squares and serve.

    13. Make sure to refrigerate any of your leftover Black Bean Brownies

    Why are you going to ruin those brownies with butter flavored Crisco? Use the real thing my dear.

    Pillsbury Sugar Free fudge brownies with apple sauce instead of veggie oil and egg substitute. Make them as brownies so you KNOW how many you're eating.

    Btw. 98 cals each.
