Chocolate Meltaways

These are great and chocolatey, and are made in a matter of minutes!  With beans as the base, they are high in fiber and antioxidants.  Coconut butter lends a creaminess and richness to the brownies, besides contributing beneficial oils.  These chocolatey treats could be made with just cocoa or carob powder, but I’ve combined them because cocoa powder gives a true chocolate flavor and the carob powder...
