When life gives you (an economic) depression, look to your ancestors for inspiration. Thanks to my pal Mimi, I have a lot of Vegenaise (vegan mayonnaise), so I veganized this Southern classic recipe for chocolate cake made with mayonnaise in place of butter and eggs.

This super-rich yet low-fat brownie recipe is one I’ve been working on since I read about the idea in 101cookbooks.com. (the original recipe uses 4 eggs) It uses black beans kind of like you’d use tofu. I’ve modified the recipe liberally to make it vegan.
