I'm a big fan of rich chocolate fudgey brownies as opposed to cakey ones. I adapted this one (surprisingly) from a Weight Watchers recipe, but I added espresso powder, more chocolate, and walnuts. The result is probably no longer WW-worthy, but if you're going to eat a brownie, it might as well taste good, right? That's my philosophy.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 rounded tsp instant espresso powder
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg + 1 egg white
- 1 tbsp water
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 oz semisweet chocolate pieces (I recommend Baker's semisweet chocolate chunks)
- 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 tsp vanilla
Spray an 8x8 pan with cooking spray and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, espresso. Add walnuts to coat in flour mixture. In another bowl, whisk egg + egg white and beat in sugar, vanilla, and water. Melt chocolate and butter together (a microwave is fine) and let cool slightly before adding to the egg mixture. Mix the chocolate into the flour mixture and stir until all combined. Spread in pan and bake 19 to 21 minutes. Let cool before cutting into these (if you can wait that long!).
