It’s Transformation Tuesday 🙌 And this month, we’re all about transforming ingredients into recipes you’d never imagine. We’re kicking things off with these delicious brownies with a secret ingredient: avocado!
With the boost of healthy fats from the avocado, these brownies are ultra-rich and chocolatey. No one will ever guess that these Fudgy Avocado Brownies are healthy 😉
