A couple of days ago I wrote about the Rachael Ray show and the high fiber brownie recipe that was made. Well, I made them! On Rachael Ray’s site–you can get the recipe to make brownies from scratch, but in this house–nothing beats Betty Crocker brownies with the frosting packet included! They are our favorite–nothing from scratch even compares! Anyway–I pureed the whole can of black beans–liquid and all–and I added two little cups of baby food prunes. Beat them together and then added the brownie mix and ingredients. When they came out of the oven-the first thing I noticed was that they didn’t rise as much as normal–but that just made them a bit more fudgy. We let them cool–and put the chocolate frosting on. How did they go over with the kids??? They loved them! The oldest keeps proclaiming that they are the best brownies he’s ever had–which is good since I made them for him! For an adult–they are just a little thick–with a ‘new’ texture–but honestly–they tasted better than store bought brownies–and each brownie carries the full days worth of fiber! So easy to get this kind of fiber into them!

Don’t mind the look of the top of the brownies–if you don’t have a two year old running his hands through the frosting–your’s won’t look like this!!
