Thanks for the recipe. Are you a vegan? How did you hear about a
brownie made with black beans? I'll assume that while you think it's
interesting, it's not grabbing you or you would have tried it already.
I think I'll make the version I posted upthread, probably today...
because it really appeals to me a lot.

I have seen such recipes in a low-carb context.

That's a possibility too.

I should add that that would be with artificial sweeteners
(plural, because I think the chocolate would benefit from the
synergism of more than one such sweetener). And purist would use
soy beans.

I'm not vegan, but my daughter is. I don't remember how I stumbled
on it, but it looked interesting. I found it just before
thanksgiving and the house has been full of too many temptations ever
since.

Maybe next month---
