HG Tip! Wondering what to do with the rest of your brownie mix? Make single-serving brownies by thoroughly mixing 2 tbsp. brownie mix with 1 tsp. fat-free liquid egg substitute and 1 tsp. water in a small dish and then microwaving for 1 minute. Let sit for 5 minutes, and then consume immediately! Your treat will contain around 106 calories, 2g fat, 22g carbs, and 1g fiber.

bumping for that recipe!

I just made these a couple days ago and my whole family loves them. I adapted them from a Skinnytaste.com recipe. I like them so much it is hard to eat just one!

1 - 18.25 oz Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge cake mix
1 -1.4 oz pkg of sugar free, fat free, instant chocolate pudding
1 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 1/3 cups water
96 ea Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preheat oven to 350°. Spray 2 cupcake pans (this will make 24 cupcakes) with Pam and spread around evenly.
Combine pumpkin puree and water in a large bowl; mix to combine. Add chocolate pudding mix and mix well. Add chocolate cake mix and beat 2 minutes. Fill 24 cupcake tins 2/3 full and put 4 chocolate chips on each cupcake, press them into batter slightly. Bake about 27-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool for a couple minutes in pan then remove cupcakes and cool on cooling racks. These will fall slightly and end up kind of dense like a brownie...yum! Only 94 calories per brownie/cupcake.

I have found this absolutely fabulous website!

Here's the direct link - http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2012/09/06/no-flour-black-bean-brownies/

She's a vegan and comes up with all these puddingy + other recipes which are actually super healthy! Just by looking at the ingredients it sounds disgusting but trust me, it really works xxx

Maybe make brownies from scratch. just remove egg yolks, and sub stevia for sugar. haven't tried this yet. Baking from scratch is a chore.

These are AWESOME!!!!

AND!!!

Only 70 calories per brownie!

The fiber one brownies are pretty good!! 90 calories!

I like the Fiber One Brownies as well...the trick though, is to put them in the microwave for 10 seconds, and they're about 50 times yummier!

(Just make sure not to go much over 10 seconds, or they WILL burn!)

I messed with a recipe I found online until I got a taste I liked:

1 can black beans - rinsed
6 TB unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1/2 C natural peanut butter
1/2C cocoa powder
1 1/3C brown sugar (I tried the batter at a half cup and didn't like it. I made a batch with 1 cup, but that little extra made it really good)
1tsp salt
1tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
1 C whole oats

Put the beans in a food processor until they're creamy, add the other ingredients one at a time until well mixed. Add the oats for just about 10 seconds at the very end. Pour into a greased 9x9 pan and cook at 375 for 30 minutes.

They're over 100 calories each, BUT have decent protein and fiber count, so they're really filling.

I second chocolatecoveredkatie. The white bean deep dish cookie recipe is amazing.

You might try a smaller piece of a really great brownie.
Just a little of the good stuff is the way to go.

Take your existing brownie recipe
1 cup of oil called for (butter, margarine, olive oil, vegetable oil,etc roughly 2000 calories)
replace / substitute ALL of that on a 1:1 basis with Apple sauce or canned pumpkin
Apple sauce 200 calories, only 10% of what the oil gives
Pumpkin 1 cup = 100 calories... 5% of what the oil gives calorie wise.

That alone saves a good chunk of calories and the applesauce / pumpkin does the same thing for the recipe the oil was.
