Ingredients

¾ cup All Purpose Flour
½ tsp Baking Powder
½ cup Unsweetened Chocolate -melted from bar or chips
1 cup Splenda -see post for alternatives
¾ cup Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 Egg
1 Egg White

Tip: Use parchment paper to line your baking dish. Allow the parchment paper to overhang from the sides of the dish for easier removal and clean up.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325 and prep your square baking pan for nonstick. I suggest using Parchment Paper that overhangs the pan for easier transferring and clean up.
In a medium mixing bowl, use a whisk or a fork to mix together the flour and the baking powder.
Next, in a mixing bowl blend together the cooled chocolate, sugar alternative, and Greek Yogurt. Then stir in the vanilla extract and the eggs.
For the next step, we will add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the mixing bowl. Do this by adding half of the dry ingredients at a time, stirring gently between additions. Mix the ingredients until just blended.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool before cutting. Simply lift the brownies out of the pan using the overhanging parchment to cut your brownies into squares.

Recipe Notes

I mentioned that Guilt free in this recipe also means substituting the fat that is added to the mixing bowl.

For nonvegans, you can use cottage cheese (¾ cup) or (¾ cup) ricotta cheese (not low-fat versions will yield more moist results). Vegan folks can use one mashed avocado or ¾ cup of coconut oil.

I also mentioned that to sweeten these brownies we will use a sugar alternative.

I suggest that you use a granular sugar alternative that measures one to one with sugar for the best results. Other options for a sugar alternative that have their own natural sweetness include honey (¾ cup), maple syrup (¾ cup), and agave (⅔ cup) (you may need to adjust your dry ingredients for consistency).
