Ingredients

  • 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup whole grain pastry flour*
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9 x 13inch baking pan with cooking spray.

Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler or heatproof bowl set over a pot of barely simmering water, stirring occasionally.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, salt, and baking soda.

In a large bowl whisk the eggs and sugar until smooth. Add the yogurt, oil and vanilla and whisk to combine. Add the chocolate-butter mixture and whisk until blended. Add the flour mixture and mix until just moistened.

Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and sprinkle with nuts if using. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Cut into 24 squares.

Serving size: 1 square

    I agree with her when she says that you definately cannot get these out of a box. Make from a box, you get good brownies. This recipe came out so dry, and not like something you would call a brownie. More like dried up cake. After one taste, we gave them to our goats. They will eat anything.

    I SHOULD have listened the other reviews when they said it was a total waste of time and money. That's exactly what I think this recipe is. My husband even had a stomach ache and I had to throw it away next day. I made it in the night and I promise I tried to eat next day... I couldn't it was really bad.
