Chocolate Brownies

Yum

coffee, dark chocolate, soft wheat flour, unsweetened cocoa

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Luscious, dark and rich tasting, just the way a brownie should be, yet very low in fat and sugar (some of the sugar has been replaced by the natural lactose sugar found in milk). Just perfect for Valentine’s day!

Chocolate Brownies

Cuisinicity Tip: I use whole wheat pastry flour, which is made out of wholegrain soft wheat that is much lighter in taste than whole wheat flour. It is still rich in fiber and is perfect for pastries.You can find this flour at your regular supermarket in the health section.

    Can i use cocoa instead? I don’t have the baking bars. To sub they recommend on container 3 TBL cocoa and 1 TBL oil for each ounce chocolate in recipe. Would this be ok? Thanks

    Yay !!!! Found powdered coconut milk, added walnuts because, for me, a brownie is not a brownie without walnuts!!

    If I want to add walnuts when would I add it?

      Olivia, Yum! walnuts are both delicious and nutritious so YAY! You would stir them in right at the end, before you pour the batter in the pan.

    This one didn’t work out so good for me. I plan on trying again. I used less sugar, didn’t have powder milk and I think it stayed in the oven to long.

      Oh no! I am sorry to hear that! I just love this recipe–it’s one of my old ones but I guess it really needs to be strictly adhered to. Is there a reason you wanted to cut down the sugar further? I think I went as low as I could possibly could, with the addition of the fat free powdered milk to help me achieve the right sweetness. Please, please let me know how it goes next time, OK?

        Because I didn’t have the powdered milk, I used a little almond milk, I lowered the sugar. Once I get the powdered milk I will most certainly let you know.

    Can I use olive oil instead and coconut sugar?

      Hi Olivia, I have not tried olive oil in this particular dessert but have used it in my orange polenta petits fours so I don’t see why not! I think, similarly, coconut sugar would work as well but haven’t tried it so no sure if you would vary the amount but please let me know. I am always opened to substitutions when they stay nutritious and keep it as delicious!!

    Just popped these in the oven – only had organic sunflower oil – we’ll see how that works/tastes!
