I am shocked every single time I make this recipe. There is absolultey NO reason anyone should eat a full fat, full sugar brownie when recipes like this exist.
These Slow Carb Lean Brownies taste like the real thing…without ANY guilt.
I dare you to give these brownies a try, and tell me they don’t taste like choclatey morsels of heaven.
And here’s a confession…I don’t even really like chocolate that much! But I Fricken’ LOVE these Slow Carb Brownies.
Plus they don’t give me a hangover like regular, fattening desserts.
Tip: Get all your ingredients together BEFORE you start. I’ve learned this the hard way over the years 😉
These brownies are rich, decadent, and taste like the REAL THING. If you divide the final result into 5 servings, each brownie will yield only about 150 calories!!!
And by the way, all of those 150 calories are from VERY healthy, natural, gluten free, wheat free, low glycemic ingredients!
