 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    3       tb           Unsweetened cocoa powder
      1/4   c            Vegetable oil
    2                    Very ripe bananas
      1/2   c            Sugar
    2       lg           Eggs
    1       c            Whole-wheat flour
      1/2   c            Chopped nuts
 
   Preheat oven to 350 F.
   
   Combine cocoa, oil and bananas in a food processor or blender.  Puree until
   smooth.  Combine sugar, eggs, flour and banana mixture in a mixing bowl.
   Beat until blended, then stir in the nuts.
   
   Pour the batter into a lightly oiled 9 x 13 inch baking pan and bake for
   15-20 minutes or until done.  Toothpick inserted into center should come
   out clean.  (My suggestion - line baking pan with waxed paper and spray
   with non-stick vegetable spray.)  Cut into 2 1/4 inch squares when cool.

   I'd suggest cutting into 48 squares, easier to eat and easier to fit into a
   meal plan for a diabetic.  1/24 recipe fits within Am. Diabetes Assoc.
   guideline of 1 tsp sugar per serving.
