Description

These brownies are a result of my tampering with a regular brownie recipe and obtaining an amazing result. They are so moist and fudgy that you'll never know they're good for you!

Ingredients
  • ¼ cup applesauce
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 2 egg whites
  • ¼ cup butter, melted
  • ¼ cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon coffee flavored extract
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8 inch square pan.
  2. 2. In a medium bowl, stir together the applesauce, white sugar, egg whites and butter until smooth. Mix in the buttermilk, vanilla extract and coffee extract. Combine the cocoa, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt; stir into the sugar mixture just until incorporated. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  3. 3. Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, but the brownies are still moist. Cool, and cut into squares.
