No...this isn't breakfast....believe it or not it's a chocolate cake!
Another one of Mom's birthday cake creations.
Since we were having a breakfast brunch for the Jan/Feb birthdays (Bryan, Jeremy, Mike, Marie, and Dorcha)...she made a breakfast themed cake. LOVE IT!
You can't have cake without coffee... coffee cake that is.
She may need her own Cake Boss show on Food Network.

Since we're already talking sweets....here are two ways to make delicious black bean brownies. One is the quick and convenient way and the other is the clean eating way.
Black Bean Brownies (quick and easy)
recipe from Jamie Marrow's kitchen (fellow CrossFitter)
Rinse and drain one can of black beans, puree beans in food processor or blender.
Mix bean into dry brownie mix, add the instructed amount of water on the back on the box. Omit eggs and oil. Spread onto greased baking pan. Bake as directed on box. huh.... YUM about sums it up. J and I topped our with a scoop of DQ soft served ice cream.
what a great way to get some beans in your life or your child's! never will I make packaged brownies without beans again!
