How to Make Low Fat Marbled Chocolate Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar, 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, and ½ cup margarine, stirring constantly until smooth and melted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. Gently stir in 2 large egg whites and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. In a small bowl, combine 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons milk. Mix until smooth.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter.
  9. Gently swirl the cream cheese mixture into the brownie batter using a knife or toothpick for a marbled effect.
  10. Bake for 22-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  11. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.
