So, I found this recipe while searching on www.101cookbooks.com
I would post it here, but everything she wrote and how she stated it, and the picture makes it much more fun I think... so click here for the Black Bean Brownies
And if you try them, do let me know how they turn out because it sounds divine!!!! (Oddly so, of course)

Bake-off... The Wining Recipe
I entered the bake-off we had at work... I know, not very healthy, right? True, but everything in moderation. So, I tried a recipe I had never even tasted or baked, but my mom said she thought it was great so I figured, why not!
Somehow, I managed to win... I of course, tasted the cake afterwards and it was truly very good. I love Tiramisu and this is a really fun way to make it.
Tiramisu Toffee Torte
1 package (18-1/4 ounces) white cake mix
1 cup strong brewed coffee, room temperature
4 egg whites
4 Heath candy bars (1.4 ounces each), chopped
FROSTING:
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup chocolate syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups heavy whipping cream
6 tablespoons strong brewed coffee, room temperature
1 Heath candy bar (1.4 ounces), chopped
Line two greased 9-in. round baking pans with waxed paper and grease the paper; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, coffee and egg whites; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Fold in chopped candy bars. Pour into prepared pans. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool. For frosting, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in chocolate syrup and vanilla. Add the whipping cream. Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Cut each cake horizontally into two layers. Place bottom layer on a serving plate; drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the coffee. Spread with 3/4 cup frosting. Repeat twice. Top with the remaining cake layer and drizzle top layer with coffee. Frost top and sides of cake with remaining frosting. Refrigerate overnight. Garnish with chopped candy bar. Store in the refrigerator.
