Dr. Oz's Butt Busting Brownies!
If you think brownies are off-limits when you’re trying to get fit, think again! This no-bake brownie is not your typical dessert. The cayenne revs up your metabolism to get your body moving and the cinnamon helps process sugar intake, which helps keep fat from being absorbed into your bottom. It’s a win-win!
Ingredients
1 cup raw cacao powder
1/4 tsp cayenne
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup low fat milk
1 cup organic raisins
1 cup oats
Directions
In a food processor purée the cacao, cayenne, cinnamon, milk and raisins until a smooth paste forms. Add the oats to the food processor and quickly pulse to incorporate them. Transfer the mix into a square or rectangular container lined cross wise with wax paper. Press down to form the ‘brownie' base. Refrigerate until firm. Cut into squares before serving. Enjoy!

Just found this really neat tool called the Recipe Calculator. You input the ingredients of your favorite recipe and it calculates all of the nutrition information (i.e., calories, fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbs, protein, etc.). Here's the link: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp0
