½ cuppeanut butter, creamy, no-stir
⅓ cupmaple syrup
⅓ cupunsweetened cocoa powder
1 tspbaking powder
1 tspvanilla extract, optional
¼ tspsalt
⅓ cupvegan dark chocolate chips, optional

Method

Heat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment and lightly oil it.
Blend the black beans, peanut butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla and salt in a food processor, scraping down the sides, until completely smooth and thick.
Fold in half of the chocolate chips. Scrape the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Scatter on the rest of the chips.
Bake until the top looks set and the edges pull from the pan. The center should still be a little soft.
⏱ 25 min
Cool completely in the pan before cutting. They are fudgy and fragile while warm and firm up as they cool.
⏱ 30 min
Lift out with the parchment and cut into 12 squares. Store in the fridge up to 5 days.
