How to Make Awesome Lower Fat Brownies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate together. Stir until smooth.
- Add the sugar and eggs. Beat well until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving.
- For the Skor-bits substitute version: Replace 1 cup of chocolate chips with 1 cup of coarsely chopped toffee bits or pretzels for a unique twist.
