Choco-holic

I am a chocoholic.  (aren't we all?...) I am always trying to make my favorite recipes lighter.  Here is one I recently tried.  

 Peanut Butter Brownie Bites ( test 1)


Prep time:  5 min
Cook time:  15 min
Serves: 28

Ingredients

Instructions

  • preheat oven 350 and spray cupcake tins with non-stick spray 
  • 1. Mix box brownie mix with the applesauce and egg whites.
  • 2. Pour into prepared cupcake tins. (approximately 1/8 cup batter in each) Drop about 1/2 tsp peanut  butter onto each cupcake. Use a toothpick to swirl a design in each one. 
  • 3. Bake about 15 minutes until tester comes out clean. 
  • **use mini muffin tins for even lower calorie treat

These brownies are a little more cake-like than I prefer.  I am thinking of omitting the water and maybe adding baking powder... What do you think?

  1. Lida, This is great! How you've hit the nail on the head. I learned almost all I know about cooking from living in LA and your mom . It's hard to cook any other way, but I'm trying! Looking forward to your next blog!!
