Enjoy these better-for-you brownies for a sweet treat that contain minimal sugar. They're just as moreish and chocolatey - a sure-fire hit with the family

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dessert

Time 45m

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

250g wholemeal spelt flour
75g cocoa powder
125g dark brown soft sugar
125g 0% fat Greek yogurt
125g rapeseed oil
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp instant coffee granules, mixed with 350ml boiling water
100g dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa solids), broken into pieces
2 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
150g 0% fat Greek yogurt
16 walnuts, roughly chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 20cm square tin with baking parchment. Mix the flour, cocoa and sugar, breaking up any clumps of sugar.
  • Combine the yogurt, oil, syrup, vanilla and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix. Stir the baking powder into the coffee, pour this in and quickly mix to make a smooth batter (see tip, below). Pour into the tin and bake for 35 mins until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out with just a few crumbs attached.
  • Leave to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the frosting, melt the chocolate in 10-second bursts in the microwave. Beat in the syrup, vanilla, yogurt and 1 tbsp boiling water to loosen, if needed. Spread over the cake and leave to set for at least 30 mins, then cut into 16 squares. Dot over the walnuts, if using. Will keep for three days in an airtight container at room temperature, or up to five days in the fridge.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A chocolate with at least 70% cocoa solids is ideal.
  • Make sure the butter and chocolate are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them to combine smoothly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the squares tough.
  • Bake the squares until they are just set in the center. Overbaking will make them dry.
  • Let the squares cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
  • Store the squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These chocolate squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and gooey texture, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these chocolate squares a try.
