How to Make Rocky Mountain Brownies Light

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with vegetable spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ cup applesauce, ¼ cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ cup plain yogurt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes in the center of the preheated oven.
  7. Remove from oven and sprinkle evenly with ½ cup mini marshmallows and ½ cup chocolate chips.
  8. Return to oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting and serving.
