Butt Busting Brownies

This is a Butt Busting Brownie that Dr Oz introduced and it is amazing, this no-bake brownie is not your typical dessert. The cayenne revs up your metabolism to get your body moving and the cinnamon helps process sugar intake, which helps keep fat from being absorbed into your bottom.

Ingredients
1 cup raw cacao powder
1/4 tsp cayenne
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup low fat milk
1 cup organic raisins
1 cup oats

Directions
 In a food processor purée the cacao, cayenne, cinnamon, milk and raisins until a smooth paste forms. Add the oats to the food processor and quickly pulse to incorporate them. Transfer the mix into a square or rectangular container lined cross wise with wax paper. Press down to form the ‘brownie' base. Refrigerate until firm. Cut into squares before serving.

Points to Note
Don't use a blender (too hard to get the dough out). Use a small cookie dough scooper and drop balls of the dough into powdered cocoa, then roll them in your palms to make a tighter ball = butt-busting truffles. Then finally, to clean the food processor/blender, add a cup or so of milk and blend until the leavings are incorporated into a drink, then drink your first truffle. Much easier to wash the food processor/blender.
