It's my routine to serve my family an easy snack or dessert that doesn't take up much time to make and importantly low in fat and healthy.
I came up with these moist easy brownies using mashed potato. I had my son samples the brownies before I told him the magical ingredient. He had no clue!
It was really good and a great alternative to the traditional brownies! If you're craving for chocolaty dessert, you should try this...
EGGLESS POTATO CHOCOLATE BROWNIES
Yield : 16 servings
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 cup mashed potato
1/2-3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup milk
3 tablespoon oil/melted butter
1/4 cup semi sweet choc chip
silvered almonds for topping (optional)
METHOD
Preheat oven @ 180 C and grease 8 in square pan ( I used round pan).
In a large bowl, combine sugar, oil, milk, mashed potato and vanilla.
Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa and salt into a mixing bowl.
Add sugar mixture to the dry ingredient, stir until well incorporated.
Mix in chocolate chip, spread into a greased pan. Sprinkle top with silvered almonds if desired.
Bake @ 350 F for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes, transfer onto rack to cool.
Slice to serve. Enjoy!

I'm working on an alternative brownie recipe myself, but I would have never thought of potatoes.
These would be wonderful for my egg-allergic little boy. (and it sounds a lot better than black beans ;)
Thank you for posting!
