ANTI-DEPRESSANT BROWNIES

Who needs drugs when you have these brownies?! They're so rich and chocolately I would NEVER have guessed they're low fat... but the ingredients don't lie! I've found my new favorite brownie recipe. Be careful, though... just like the drugs, they're habit-forming. I got this recipe from TessLouise on the IBS message boards at www.helpforIBS.com.

Time 50m

Yield 1 9x13 inch pan, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup canola oil
1/2 cup boiling water
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 cups sugar
4 large egg whites (or 1/2 cup Egg Beaters)
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Spray a 9x13" baking pan with cooking oil and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa and baking soda (I like to sift them together to destroy any lumps in the cocoa).
  • Blend in the oil, and mix until smooth.
  • Pour in the boiling water, stirring until the mixture thickens.
  • Stir in the applesauce, the sugar, and the egg whites; mix until smooth.
  • Add the flour and the vanilla; blend completely- there should be no lumps.
  • Pour into the prepared baking pan.
  • Spread the batter evenly to avoid crispy edges.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes (25-30 minutes if using a Pyrex pan), until just set in the middle.
  • Let cool and cut into squares.
  • Note: I've also halved this and baked it in an 8x8" glass pan and it was done in about 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose good quality chocolate: Use chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher) for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use real butter: Butter adds richness and flavor to the brownies. Avoid using margarine or shortening.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking brownies is 350°F (175°C). This will help ensure that the brownies are cooked through but still moist.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting: This will help prevent the brownies from falling apart.
