Smoked Black Bean & Mint Brownies

Holy smokes! These chocolate brownies are made from ingredients that are actually good for you? You better believe it. Black beans, a unique brownie ingredient that’s impossible to detect, provides a fudgy texture and lots of protein. Mixed with fresh mint leaves and cacao – an antioxidant-rich superfood – you will feel anything but guilt after indulging in this dessert. To get started, simply combine all the ingredients in a blender (so easy!) and pour into a pan. Use your smoker for a campfire-esque finish or an oven to do the rest.
