I thought these sounded terrible when I first saw the recipe. I'm not a fan of black beans. But once I tried them, I was hooked. They're the only brownies I make now. Use nutritional information from the box to figure points, but if you cut into twenty servings, they should come out to 3 points each.
Drain blacks beans and rinse well. Put black beans and water into a blender and puree until very smooth. Add black bean mixture to brownie mix and stir. Put brownie mixture in a dish that you have sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake according to package directions. Cool before cutting.
Brownies were moist, dense and cake-like. No detection of any bean flavor. In fairness to the recipe, I have never been a big fan of 'box' brownies, so I was disappointed with the lack of chocolate flavor. I'll stick to brownies from scratch but would not discourage those who like box brownies to try this recipe.
