Yes, it was 9:00 at night, but I was craving something chocolatey. I have this awesome recipe from Trim Healthy Mama called Special Agent Brownie Cake. Would you believe you can lose weight while eating a brownie? Well, you can! But first, my OOTD.

These are almost carb free - no flour or sugar. Now, what's the secret ingredient in these brownies? Black beans!
Get our your food processor and add everything into it.
Add 1 can of drained black beans. 2 eggs and 4 egg whites.
Add 4 Tbs. unsweetened cocoa powder.
Add 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder and 1/2 tsp. baking soda.
Add. 2 tsp. vanilla extract.
Add 2 Tbs. coconut oil or butter and 1/3 cup of ricotta or cream cheese.
Add. 4-6 Tbs. Truvia depending on your sweetness level. I used 5.
After everything is in, blend for 4 minutes.
Looks like brownie batter! Pour into a greased baking pan and bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.
Now for some Strawberry Buttercream Frosting!
Add two packages of cream cheese and a stick of butter.
Add 3 Tbs. Truvia (add more to taste once everything is mixed).
Add 1 Tbs. strawberry extract (or any extract you like).
Add 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon.
You can add some coconut flakes if you like. I added them in now so the flakes would break down a bit but you can add them in afterwards as well to keep the large flakes whole.
Mix well and adjust strawberry and Truvia to taste.
Yum!
