Ingredients
- 1.5 Cups black beans drained and rinsed
- 3 Tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/2 Cup chocolate protein powder (we used Kaizen)
- 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
- 1/3 Cup pure maple syrup or sweetener of choice
- 3.5 Tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/3 Cup chocolate chips
How to Make It
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Combine all ingredients except chips in a high-quality food processor, and blend until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour into a greased 8×8 square pan. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips over the top.
Bake bars for approximately 16 minutes. They will still look underdone when you take them from the oven.
Refrigerate overnight. The bars will have firmed up and are now ready to cut and eat.
