The title for this recipe sounds fantastic, but I must admit the ingredients are a little out there! The only thing I normally use black beans in is burritos and I’ve never heard of any kind of beans going into a dessert! I’m also not entirely sure what tahini is, I’ve heard the name, but sounds like more health food store items.

Beautiful ingredients ! Not so keen on rice malt syrup, but that easy to substitute with the sweetener of your choice.

I love dark chocolate anything, and we’re big brownies fans. But, I don’t know or have many of these ingredients. Would make for an expensive bake.
