Chewy Chocolate Brownies

A recipe I found on one of my favourite sites eatingwell.com

The mission, whilst on this diet hell is to come up with creative snacks and treats that are not too heavy in calories or sugar. These (in theory), are around 93 calories per brownie so it’s not the end of the world if you have more than one :-) 

Recipe called for Graham crackers, so instead I used a generic store brand wafer (chocolate flavour) which were the closest equivalent our Coles supermarket stocked. 

To make, I firstly preheated the oven to 145 degrees celsius. Following the mixing instructions to a tee, I placed the mixture into an oiled (extra virgin olive oil spray is best) 8 inch circular tray and baked for 25 minutes, rotating the tray half way through to ensure an even cook. Once done, I left the tray out to cool for and hour and a half before cutting up and transporting to a serving plate. 

So far one of my favs!
