Black Bean Brownies - DRAG-free!

In honor of a lovely new mommy who doesn't want her food limitations to be a DRAG...
I present these yummy brownies!

I  had tried a Black Bean Brownie recipe before that was not gluten-free. Then I tried a YUMMY Flourless Brownie recipe from The Spunky Coconut Cookbook (my favorite cookbook!)
My recipe is a combination of the two.

I enjoy them best hot out of the oven, or cold out of the refrigerator. So good.

If you are like me, you may wait until your family has tasted them (and loved them!) before you reveal the secret ingredient!

Fruit & Brownie Kabobs

Here is a peek at the Fruit & Brownie Kabobs I made tonight.

Brownies in the Petit-Four Tray are the perfect size.

Layer on kabob sticks with bite-sized bananas, strawberries and pineapple.

I drizzled them with White Chocolate Ganache (made with heavy whipping cream and white chocolate chips.)

So easy- yet so fun!

We have a few leftovers. Who is coming to eat one with me???
