Brownies

I made this recipe last night and for healthy brownies its just divine. There are a few things I may do different in the future. I followed the recipe almost exactly except I didn't use their special agave, I just used my normal dark agave yum! I used dutch cocoa powder (its what I had), no nuts and aluminum free baking powder. In the future I may make a fudge sauce by mixing agave with the cocoa powder to drizzle on top to make them more chocolaty and gooey, or I may add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the mix to make them extra fudgy. But really these turned out fabulous and I couldn't ask for more from a healthy brownie. They are soft and chewy and very chocolaty and sweet. I really encourage you to try this recipe the next time you are craving brownies.

So even though those are healthy brownies the truth is they still pack calories so in order to justify me eating the whole pan within 2 days I spent some time on my hangboard doing a workout with weights on my ankles. Whats a hangboard? Basically a fancy pull up bar for people who like to climb rocks. Here is a picture of mine. I have a friend who posted an excellent post using food as an analogy for reading and living the bible. I have asked permission to use it on my blog because it is so good, I hope he agrees so I can share it with all of you.
