    yes. it's misleading and you know some people are going to eat it and eat it and not realize the problem with it, and its going to hinder their dieting goals...

    1 TBSP flour
    1 TBSP sugar
    1 TBSP unsweetened cocoa
    a pinch of baking soda
    a pinch of salt
    1 TBSP of low fat yoghurt

    There ya go, I think this actually is low cal. Comes out about 100ish cals depending on your ingredients.

    Bump
    sounds like a winner

    Thank you so much for sharing, I can't wait to prepare this recipe. I may add a few dark chocolate chips, and substitute non-fat yogurt for the oil (as in "No Pudge" instant fat free brownie mix).

    Nobody is reading the comments -- especially those that chime in to correct the calorie count.

    The OP should really go back and edit the original post and MFP should really find a way to "favorite" threads so we can get rid of the bumping.

    PLEASE START READING THE ENTIRE THREAD and stop bumping it

    This is not 101 calories, this is more like 400 calories. The numbers are wrong.

    You could shave about 135 calories if you substituted sweetener for the sugar. I really like baking with Stevia in the Raw.

    Here's a recipe for a 189 mug brownie! http://candelacouture.com/2012/08/09/recipe-skinnyspeedy-mug-brownie/

    Ingredients:

    4 Tablespoons Flour(can be whole wheat)
    4 Tablespoons Splenda or stevia(replaces sugar)
    2 Tablespoons Unsweetened/natural Cocoa powder (Note: don’t use cocoa mix or quik, it shouldn’t have any sugar)
    2 Tablespoons applesauce (replaces the oil or butter)
    2 Tablespoons Water
    Dash of salt
    Mug
    Microwave

    Now on to the steps! They are very quick & easy but one must measure ingredients correctly to get the perfect Mug Brownie!

    Step 1-Mix: Add the sugar substitute, flour, cocoa and salt to the mug first. Then add the applesauce and water to the dry mix. Make sure there are no clumps

    Step 2- Microwave: Microwave on high for about a minute. The mixture should rise but the middle should still be somewhat wet when done.

    Step 3- eat,eat,eat: let it cool & dig in! you can add dark chocolate chips or a scoop of low fat yogurt to the top to make it a stunning sundae as well!

    I got unsweetened apple sauce and would use a bit more stevia because it's not as sweet as I'd like. Enjoy!

    Right now I have my monster sweet tooth under control. BUT I will keep this recipe just in case it ever rears its ugly head again! Thanks so much for posting!
    PS! My doctor is the one who told me that if I quit my diet pop habit that my sweet tooth would dissapear. Bullsh*t was my initial reaction. I had to tell her two weeks later she was right. No more pop for me and no more sweet tooth and my sweet tooth was what has always killed my dieting ability!

    I really wish the OP would edit her post and add something that lets people know it is more like 400-450 calories and not 101 cal -.-
