Serving Size: 16

Cooking Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

• 15.5 Ounces (oz) black beans, drained
• 0.75 Cups white sugar
• 0.25 Cups cocoa powder
• 3 Large eggs
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) vegetable oil
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) instant coffee, ground
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste
• 0.5 Cups dark chocolate chips, divided

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish with vegetable oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. In a high-powered blender or food processor, combine the black beans, sugar, cocoa powder, eggs, vegetable oil, instant coffee, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, ensuring no bean chunks remain.
3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Gently fold in half of the dark chocolate chips into the batter for a gooey chocolate surprise in every bite.
4. Evenly sprinkle the remaining dark chocolate chips over the surface of the batter for a decadent topping.
5. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is set and the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
6. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut into 16 squares. Enjoy these rich, fudgy brownies as a delightful gluten-free dessert or snack!
