I tried to make brownies but I spread the mixture really thinly in a tin that was too large and well the result was not brownies!
But the result was a thin but still tasty and low pro points dessert so I'll share the recipe anyway.
I got a dollop of weight watchers cream and sandwiched two slices together.
They'd also work well with some vanilla ice cream, like an Iceberger.
Maybe I'll figure out a good low weight watchers pro point brownie someday! I'll keep you posted.
A large tray makes 15 squares.
2 squares = 3 pro points
30g weight watchers cream = 1 pro point
Vanilla ice cream = approx 2 pro points per 100ml, check your brand pack
Ingredients:
30g good quality chocolate (I used green & blacks plain)
100g low fat butter
40g cocoa powder
100g sweetener
1 whole egg
2 egg whites
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 150 degrees C. Grease a rectangular shallow tin (I used 0 cal spray) and dust with cocoa powder.
2. In the microwave or in a bowl over a pot of boiled water melt the chocolate and butter.
3. Remove from heat and add the cocoa powder, sweetener & eggs. Whisk lightly to remove any lumps.
4. Pour into tin and spread gently to the edges then bake for approx 30 minutes.
Slice 5 times down the widest part then turn the tin and slice 3 times the other way.
Sandwich with cream or ice cream in the middle. Enjoy!
Note:
After some online research I found another reason these "wannabe brownies" may not have risen, because I used sweetner.
I'm new to this low fat, low calorie, weight watching baking so back to sugar I think and back to experimenting!
