    Hiya

    I used:

    75g wholemeal flour
    60g cocoa
    1/4 tsp salt
    1 egg (couldn't find a substitute and it didn't affect cals much at all)
    2 large egg whites
    225g soft brown sugar
    4 tbsp of apple sauce - just used the one we have with Sunday lunch - worked fine.
    2 fl oz coffee
    2 tsp vanilla

    100g Philadelphia light (1/2 a tub)
    2 oz sugar
    1 egg
    1 tbsp plain white flour
    1 tbsp low fat natural yogurt
    1 tsp vanilla

    pre-heat oven to 180' and bake for 20 minutes. Leave til cold on a rack still in the tin. Then slice into pieces. Don't be impatient like me and slice them when still slightly warm - some stuck to the knife.

    Also, I have frozen half the batch and will see how well that goes. Can I also suggest that you add 3/4 not 1/2 the brownie mixture to the tin before you add the cheesecake mix otherwise you won't get much of a swirl. My other half is currently troughing them all x

    thanks - that helps a lot for me I was thinking about what to do with the eggsubstitute as I don't think they have those things here in germany where I live lol
  • i made them this weekend. i may try again without the coffee. i like coffee, but i thought the taste of the coffee overpowered the chocolate flavor in these. also-- not sure what i did, but my cheesecake layer sunk! i didn't have swirls on top, i ended up with a cheesecake layer in the middle though. the cheesecake part was my favorite part of them too.

    I have whole wheat flour, but not whole wheat pastry flour. Do you think it would make a difference?

    I have whole wheat flour, but not whole wheat pastry flour. Do you think it would make a difference?

    I used regular whole wheat flour and it came out fine
