How to Make Almost Fat Free Fudge Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips in 15-20 second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Avoid burning!
- Let the melted chocolate cool slightly (about 1-2 minutes).
- Add 1/2 cup (113g) plain nonfat yogurt and 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar to the melted chocolate. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup (20g) unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture, along with 1/2 cup (60g) chopped nuts (optional). Stir until just combined.
- Add 1/4 cup (60ml) water and stir until the batter is smooth and consistent.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
