BROWNIES (WITH CARROT AND SPINACH)



Brownies (With Carrot and Spinach) image

Created by Jessica Seinfeld From the book Deceptively Delicious These brownies fool everyone! You won't believe how scrumptious they are (or how good they are for you) until you make them yourself. Just don't serve them warm-it's not until they're completely cool that the spinach flavor totally disappears.

No one will be able to guess what healthy ingredient these brownies have in them! This recipe is from Parents magazine. I've made them a few times and my kids love them. I'd like to experiment and replace the vegetable oil with applesauce and see if it still turns out good. If you liked these, try my Spinach Brownie Bites Recipe #223677!
