    Not trying to knock the recipe but help me out here....

    This recipe makes 12 brownies out of an 8x8 pan.
    That means each brownie is less than 1''x 1''??


    12 brownies x 88 calories = 1,056 cals for the entire pan.
    If we resize for 8 servings.... 1'' x 1'' in size.... they'd be (1056/8) 132 calories each?
    And if you made bigger brownies.... 2'' x 2''... they'd be (1056/4) 264 calories each??

    Someone help me here. I don't bake much. Are my calculations wrong?

    You're thinking 1 demensionally I think... total brownie area would be 64 inches... 8 inches on each of the four sides of the pan.

    8x8 pan would yield 12 brownies which were 2.66 inches long and 2 inches wide if you cut them exactly evenly (and if my math is right!) :wink:

    If you wanted bigger brownies, 8x8 pan divided 8 ways would give you brownies that were 4 inches long and 2 inches wide... BIG brownies! :) This would make them 132 calories a piece.

    Yes, if you wanted to eat the entire 8x8 pan, that would be 1,056 calories... which is actually not a bad deal for an entire pan of brownies! Not that I'm recommending that.... :blushing:

    I made these last night. I used whole wheat flour and a little less sugar, and they were good. After a month of being sugar-free, they were a bit too sweet ( did I say that? :noway: ) for me, and I had forgotten what chocolate does to my tummy.:grumble: I think I'll experiment with "blondies" unless someone already has a low-fat recipe.

    Sounds good, I gotta try this recipe. I usually take a box of brownie mix and add applesauce to it instead of the oil and water, super low in calories and very good. My husband dont know the difference. But this recipe sounds awesome too! Thx for sharing :)

    just remember folks. Only 88 calories if you stop at one.

    I avoid making stuff like that as even low calorie things can trip up your diet when youve got a whole trayful of the things sitting there looking at you

    I really with I could use something other then sugar....I will not use splenda or any other such product......what would happen if I make this without any sugar and just rely on the natural sweetness of the apple sauce?
