Vanilla Extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Preheat oven to 375 degrees.\u00a0 Spray a brownie pan or 8inch square casserole dish with nonstick spray, set aside. \u00a0 In a medium size mixing bowl combine the soymilk, vanilla, and coffee.\u00a0 In a large mixing bowl combine all other ingredients <em>except<\/em> the walnuts and chocolate chips.\u00a0 Whisk to get all ingredients combined and fluffed.\u00a0 Add in the nuts and chocolate chips, then add in the soymilk mixture.\u00a0 Gently stir until everything is combined and then add the mixture to the baking dish.\u00a0 The batter is a bit thick so make sure that you even it out with a spoon once it&#8217;s in the baking dish.\u00a0 Place in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/choc_quinoa_bread2.jpg\" data-rel=\"attachment-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img

chocolate gloriousness of this cake.\u00a0 It&#8217;s rich and decadent but not so heavy that you feel weighted down by dessert.\u00a0 It&#8217;s full of whole grains, quinoa, and nuts making it packed with protein and lots of good stuff for you body.\u00a0 Along with the antioxidants of the dark chocolate of course!<\/p>\n<p>Even though this did not turn out like brownies, it still turned out and I&#8217;m really happy with that!\u00a0 Sometimes I think a lot of us might be afraid to experiment in the kitchen because we are afraid of failing.\u00a0 But sometimes those failures will turn into surprises successes!\u00a0 You just never know until you try.<\/p>\n<p>Have fun guys and remember, always play with your food!\u00a0 Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><a
