Decadent Fudgy Brownies

These might be my best brownies yet - decadent and fudgy, exactly how a brownie should be. But these aren't just any normal brownies... they have a secret ingredient! The key to the fudginess in these brownies is the addition of fibre and protein packed butterbeans. Butterbeans might not seem like your usual brownie ingredient, but trust me when I say you can't taste them and they really do create the most delicious, decadent fudgy brownies.
