NOTES : Dark Fudge Brownies I made them and my kids went nuts for them, said they were some of the best brownies they had tried!! My kids are ages from 3-10. If they knew how they were made, though I dont know if they would have even tried them. LOL

When I tried the recipe though, I did not have the expresso powder and I just subbed with skim milk, they were still very chocolaty!! and omitted the nuts since my kids dont like them.

Out of all my "sneaks," this is one of my favorites and has drawn rave reviews
from my neighbors and family. Imagine their surprise when they learn the secret ingredient. One of these brownies has the same amount of fiber as a slice of whole wheat bread.

THE SNEAK:
A can of black beans is pureed and incorporated into this delicious treat. Espresso powder intensifies the chocolate experience.

Note: You can find expresso powder in most grocery stores, usually sold with instant coffee.
