Flourless Brownie Muffins

I LOVE this recipe.  It was one of the first recipes I branched out to when I decided to embrace clean eating.  I was worried I would not be able to still enjoy my sweets and treats---BOY was I wrong.  Thank goodness for Beachbody having some delicious recipes for me to try! 

I looked at the ingredients and must admit, when I saw garbanzo beans I was thinking---Oh goodness, how will this taste delicious at all?!?  But once I made them I wanted to gobble them all down.  I had to control all my urges and tell myself that even though they are very healthy --- it is still all things in moderation and I shouldn't gobble up the whole pan myself without sharing with my hubs!
