Would you like some delicious Dessert? Nothing like a nice dessert after lunch or any meal. This Black Bean Flan is the perfect dessert to satisfy sweet or low sugar cravings. A simple option to make at home, and above all, for Venezuelans, it's hard to create a dessert like this, as it's difficult to get the minimum ingredients for this recipe.

Hello my friend! First of all thanks a lot for your entry into Steemit Iron Chef!
Making a black bean flan is really a very nice and weird idea...i like it!
Hope to see you often in the contest!
Thanks!
Hello my friend @progressivechef Thank you for your comments! I am an amateur kitchen. As you can know, the economic situation of Venezuela is difficult to get the dishes, but I will make all the effort to be at your level of demand. By the way, my friends here, they tried it and they told me that it tasted like chocolate, and it does not have that ingredient jajajaja! Thanks a lot my friend!
Pretty! I like the colors of the sauces.
Black beans are an amazing source of protein. I make chocolate-cherry-brownies with black beans instead of egg and dairy.
Hi @pusteblume I really liked your recipe about chocolate-cherry-brownies, It is really interesting!! I would like that you send me, please, your recipe because we, the Venezuelans, it is difficult for us to get the ingredients...This is my email: [email protected]
Now, thinking about it, I'd really would like to have some ... Maybe I am going to make them soon myself and make a post about it. I'll inform you then. I'll try to keep it simple or suggest different options. I'll send you a message after posting it. If I won't find some time for making some myself I'll mail you the recipe. Deal?
Hello Juan! I promised you a chocolate brownie recipe: it is hidden in this article. Enjoy!
