Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper then set aside.
Step 2
In a blender or food processor, combine the black beans, cocoa powder, sugar, oats, oil, vanilla, baking powder and ½ cup chocolate chips.
Step 3
Blend until you have a mostly smooth batter (it’s okay to have chocolate chips dispersed throughout).
Step 4
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, then top with ¼ cup chocolate chips.
Step 5
Bake for 25-30 minutes (I find 27 to be the sweet spot) or until the edges are firm and the center is just firm to touch (no jiggle).
Step 6
Let cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
