Re: Weight Watcher 2 point brownies

More | Report Post

they are 3 Points each. They sound similar to the one on the
recipe board.
Sorry, but as much as I love brownies and how I have been
doing WW for a yr and 1/2, I think they sound awful. I hate
black beans, so it's hard for me to imagine them in brownies.
I'm not that hard up for fiber, I guess.

Black beans add fiber and moisture to this lightened up
version of a dessert classic. They're rich and delicious, full
of chocolaty goodness.
Ingredients

2 spray(s) cooking spray, flour-variety recommended
1/2 cup(s) canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup(s) black coffee, strong
1/2 cup(s) unsalted butter
4 oz bittersweet chocolate
4 large egg(s)
1 1/4 cup(s) sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp table salt
1 cup(s) all-purpose flour

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a 9- X 13-inch pan with cooking
spray; line with aluminum foil and coat foil with cooking
spray.

In a blender or mini food processor, process beans with coffee
until smooth; set aside.
In a double boiler over very low heat, melt butter and
chocolate.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, beat
eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. With mixer on low
speed, add melted chocolate to eggs; incorporate well. Add
black bean mixture, vanilla and salt; mix well. Add flour;
combine thoroughly on low speed.
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a tester inserted
in center of brownies comes out clean, about 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove pan to a cooling rack. After 10 minutes, remove
brownies from pan by pulling up on foil and placing brownies
on cooling rack to cool more. Cut into 24 pieces and serve.
Yields 1 piece per serving.
Notes:
Customize this basic recipe with instant espresso, a teaspoon
of cinnamon or 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Great served
with whipped cream or powdered sugar, or topped with walnuts
(could affect POINTS values).
