    I think this recipe has been posted before and there was a lot of replies to the thread. Unfortunately the search function still sucks so I can't find the thread.

    Edit: found it! http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1343968/37-calorie-brownie/p1

    Still got to try it.

    It's a sugar alternative...supposed to be better for you than splenda, equal, etc.

    It's a more natural sugar alternative than artificial sweeteners. I think it's gross, but a lot of people say that it's sweeter than sugar. Maybe that's why I think it's gross. Too sweet for my tastes.

    That said, I can see why this recipe would require a lot of it. Cocoa powder, when not sweetened to death, is gross. lol I think most of us learn that the hard way as kids.

    This recipe sounds great! I entered the recipe into MFP Recipes. I entered egg beaters instead of the egg and sugar free almond milk instead of the skim milk. The calculations on MFP are a bit higher, but still very reasonable. Can't wait to try.
    1/9 of the recipe = 49 calories, 1.1 fat, .4 sat fat, 0 chol, 92 sodium, 139 potassium, 9 carbs, 2 fiber, 1.8 sugars and 5 protein.
