Here is how you make Brownies (adapted from Rocco Dispirito's Fudgy Fruit and Nut Bars):

Preheat the oven to 350?F. Spray a 8 x 8 x 2-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Combine the beans, cocoa powder, expresso powder, eggs, yogurt and flour in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth, about 2 mintues, scraping down the bowl halfway through.Add the simple syrup/agave, butter and vanilla. Process until all of the ingredients are combined, about 1 minute. Pour the batter into a prepared baking dish, and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 20 minutes, turning the dish halfway through the baking time. Turn down the temperature of the oven to 300?F and bake for another 5-8 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a little bit of soft batter clinging to it. It should not come out clean, if it does: it?s overcooked.Let the bars cool completely at room temperature in the baking dish on a wire rack. Then put them in the fridge for at least 3 hours. When they?re cold, cut them into 12 squares and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.Number of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user READYTOBEALOSER.
