Low Cal, Low Carb & Low Sugar Choc Brownies

[emmzies]

Admittedly not the healthiest receipe in the world, but it sure beats the frightening nutritional profile of normal brownies, and is still just as rich and satisfying. :grin:

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tablespoon warm water

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon instant coffee

1/2 cup cubed butter (i used abit less)

50g dark chocolate (i.e at least 70% cocoa)

1 whole egg, lightly beaten

2 egg whites, lightly beaten

1/3 cup brown sugar (lightly packed)

1/2 tablespoon liquid artificial sweetener (should be equivilent to 1/3 cup sugar)

_________________________________________________________

- In a small bowl, sift flour and baking powder together; set aside.

- In another small bowl, blend the cocoa, water, vanilla, and espresso powder together; set aside

- In a large metal bowl set over a pan of hot, not simmering, water (bottom of the bowl should not touch the water), combine the butter and chocolate and let stand, stirring occasionally, until smooth and melted.

- In a medium-size bowl, combine the beaten eggs, sugar, and liquid artificial sweetener.

- Stir in the cocoa mixture. Add the melted chocolate/butter mixture and stir to combine. Stir in the flour mixture until mix , do not over stir.

- Pour the batter into a lightly greased pan and smooth the top.

- Bake at 175 degrees, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking (do not overbake - the brownies will still look under baked when you take them out of the oven. They will set up as they cool).

- Remove from oven and let cool completely, approximately 1 hour, on a wire rack before cutting.
