YUMMY!!! Now there's something that I could do when I'm craving chocolate!...:)JP
I have been dying to try the black bean brownie! I need to get on that.
Very glad I found your blog via Blogfrog. Please check out my blog: www.ithoughtiknewmama.com
My latest post is actually about natural living tips.
I'm your newest GFC follower. Have a great day!
I've never heard of such a thing, but I can't wait to try it!
I'm not going to lie... I have heard of these brownies before and am hesitant to try them. I'm a brownie lover and they are my Achilles Heel! I first saw them on Hungry Girl's website and the nutritional stats are stellar compared to the traditional. The avocado topping is something I have not heard of. I really need to be brave and give these a try. I trust your opinion on these.
Found you on Blog Frog. I am hesitant on this recipe because I am a big baby (ha ha). Maybe I just don't know what I am missing!
All the best,
Clay

Interesting recipe... I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to try it... just maybe. lol
Noooooooooooooooooo!!! I got all excited because we HAVE all those things. Then I remembered I am out of cocoa. And I'm snowed in. This looks like SUCH a great recipe, I could just cry. I can't wait to try it out.
Sooo excited! I have a pan of these in the oven last night because my awesome hubby brought me cocoa last night. I dont' have avocados left because I used them in my guacamole, but I will at least have SOMETHING. I think I'll make my yogurt cheese frosting to go with!
OMGOMGOMGOMG!!! These are WONDERFUL! They taste like fudgy brownies!!! Thank you so much!
(Seriously, woman, I'm pms-ing today, and this is day FIVE of being snowed in the four of my kids! You are my hero!)
I made chocolate yogurt frosting and its perfect.
I am in your debt!
MsByn I am so happy you like them! You must share your chocolate yogurt frosting! I would love to try it :)
hmm. Avacado and fudge together. Sounds tasty. Plus it is healthy. Might have to try this tonight.
