Preheat oven to 325°F and grease 8” x 8” brownie pan or baking dish.
Place beans in a food processor and blend until coarse and grainy, about 20 seconds.
Add in eggs, yogurt, applesauce, maple syrup and vanilla, and pulse to combine.
Add cacao or cocoa powder, instant coffee and baking powder, and process until smooth, scraping down the sides if necessary.
Transfer to a bowl, add in chocolate protein powder and fold in. Do not over-mix or the protein powder will make the batter tough.
Pour batter into pan, flatten top with a spatula, and bake for 20-22 minutes or until the top is set and brownies are pulling away from the sides. Toothpick inserted into the center should come out only slightly moist.
Take out of from oven and let cool.
Optional: Melt a tablespoon of chocolate chips in the microwave for 20 seconds to drizzle on top.
Cut into slices and enjoy!
